I hope everyone had a great 4th of July! We had a great holiday but I did manage to find time to sew! I finished my blocks for the Laurel Ridge BOM by Lynn Wilder featured by The Quilt Show. I used chain piecing and every quick technique I knew to get these blocks done quickly. I made 12 blocks of each colorway. I do feel I get quicker every month!
Scaredy Cat is the block this month for the Frightful Fun BOM. Today was hot and sticky. My sewing room is nice and cool but I just couldn't finish this guy today. I ran out of energy. I'm hoping to finish him tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest. Isn't he cute?? He will finish at 18" square.
I'm hoping for some drier air in the next few days. We shall see!!! This humidity just saps my energy.
Strange, I find that even though we are in AC the humid weather still saps my energy, too. Your little paper pieced kitty is just adorable...
ReplyDeleteand you really finished those star blocks fast!!:))) nice WIPS
Stay cool hugs, Julierose
Thanks so much, Julierose! I feel that humidity still gets through even with the AC on and it makes you feel sluggish. I'm hoping we get rid of it soon.
DeleteThe Laurel Ridge blocks are so pretty, Rosemary. Those points are perfect! The cat will make a cute addition to the Halloween quilt. I hope your weather improves soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jeanna! I'm glad to be up to date with my projects. It's definitely cooler today but still humid. It's better but not quite there yet!!
