Project Updates

I just finished Troubled Tomb from the Frightful Fun Block of the Month. It's all paper pieced and measures 12 X 18 finished. The hardest part for me was the grass. Those points are very thin and fine. I found them even hard to iron!

                                         

The Frightful Fun Mini is all sewn together. I just have to figure out how to quilt it. I'm finishing up this month's blocks for both of my BOMs before I even think about that! This measures 18" square when finished.


And I finished my Easter cross stitch project. I'll probably make it into a little wall hanging. The pattern is from the Spring 2024 issue of Just Cross Stitch. I just received the Spring 2025 issue and there's lots of great patterns in it too. I love the happy and bright Spring patterns. It's what you need during the long cold winter! It's been very snowy here and there are a few more storms on the way. I think I'll stay in and work on my projects!!

  1. Just such cute blocks you've made--and i love the little leaping bunnies on your x-stitchery. Nice work. DH took me food shopping this morning (my hands are still really sore!!) to stock up before the coming storms. And, S I G H , our dishwasher is signaling a "water leak"--so we have a call in to a repair person...always something, isn't it?
    Stay warm--hugs, Julierose

    1. Thank you! I hope your hands feel better soon. I'm not sure how big those storms are going to be but they sound like they'll be making driving treacherous. I'll be staying home. I hope your dishwasher gets fixed. Ours was acting up last week but it seems okay now. I'm still keeping my eye on it!! Stay safe!!

  2. Those paper pieced blocks are amazing and above my skill set! Love your little mini quilt and your cross stitch is perfect. Can't wait to see your fully finish.

    1. Thanks so much, Jeanna! I've done lots of paper piecing and it finally "clicked" for me. I feel you have to think backwards to get it to work! As soon as I finish my BOMs for this month, I'll get my other projects done. These 2 BOM are keeping me busy!!
