1) Hearts! I now have two blue and one yellow one done. The templates are almost correct, so they're going a lot faster.
2) Quilting practice. I'm doing some playing around with some random things, some basic things, and also trying to figure out how to quilt the hearts. I'm thinking a basic stipple with some teardrops (as in, all the loop-d-loos go downward) like the top of the whiteboard picture. What do you think?
3. Buying fabric. There was a tent sale today. Obviously I need fabric to practice on. And...some more too. But it was on sale!
4) Oh, I almost forgot. I got the linky all set to go for Behind the Seams. This month we're featuring our oldest fabric.
Great blocks and I love any excuse to buy new fabric!! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteQuilting at the River Linky Party Tuesday
for the quilting ... if I see shapes I always have to think of echo quilting - but I guess you are set on trying out your FMQing so ... maybe something more roundish, big cirxly overlapping loops (does that make sense?)
ReplyDeleteEhh oldest fabric as in that I own, or that I have bought new from the store? I'm going to be late to the party ...
