Design Wall Monday-May 7 2018

I actually accomplished some sewing last week. Galen was out of town from Tuesday on. I bonded with my one of my sewing machines. Set it up on the kitchen table so I didn't have to keep running up and down the steps to let the girls out to chase squirrels! It's is one of their favorite activities!

Before I started on a new quilt top I finished binding this one. Still have one more to bind or maybe two if I pick up one today! Kerry at Tincanquilting.com is doing a great job on my quilts



I have had this quilt kit from Honey Bee for a little while and decided it needed to get made


Got my strips sewn together


And cut



And then proceeded to put the first block together-Wrong!


        Amazing how I can look at a picture and still put it together wrong! Won't  be the last time that will happen!



Now on the right track

And the top is finished!!!!

It is a good size quilt-72 x 90. And a  fun pattern to make.

    Love your dogs gracing your banner. Your newly finished top looks great.

    It is gorgeous! The colors, the pop of black sashings. Very pretty.

    Great quilts, I like the white spaces in the first one, it looks so calm and cool. And I like the black in the second one. Binding is not a problem with me, but some people don't like to do it. Do you like to sew down the binding? Thanks for linking with Design Wall Mondays, Judy

      Yes, I enjoy sewing down the binding on quilts. And if it isn't too hot in Texas I love to sit outside and sew. A lot gets done early morning or late evening when it is nice to be outside
