This is the last day of March!
That means 1/4 of the year is past us!
Which is a good thing... there are a lot of
fun things coming up this year and
that includes planting flowers
and warmer weather...
the longer days
and wearing flip flops!
Oh, it is the simple things that I love the most!
I finished this Star Gazer quilt on Sunday... the wind was
crazy as you can see, so I ended up
taking a video of it blowing in the breeze and
I shared it on IG.
I am super excited to have this one as a finish for the
month of March.
There was this as a finish also.
But I really wanted to make a Tuffet out
of Strawberry Fields Revisited...
so right now I am gathering up materials
to make another Tuffet... so it will match my Star Gazer quilt!
I also finished Grow this month!
I love this Moda fabric by Me and My Sister Designs!
So, now I am thinking... what's next?
Which got me to thinking about how much I
had enjoyed the Farm Girl Vintage blocks...
which I only made half of and then got
distracted and maybe just a little overwhelmed.
I think it's a little labor intensive to
pick out new fabrics for each and every block...
I seriously think that was my breaking point.
But now I want to take the 20 blocks I have made
along with the others that had (do-overs) and
flip to the back of that Farm Girl Vintage book
and start making them into quilts!
This has been lurking in the back of my mind since
I found that box of half square triangles a month or so
ago. And then I saw that Tractor pattern with pinwheels
in FGV.
It's really nagging me so I am going to start with that for April.
I will see what else I can come up with using those blocks after
I check out my Bee In My Bonnet board on Pinterest.
I like some of the smaller quilts made from the blocks that
have a theme going...
like this from Thimbles and Threads...
6 friends stopped by to chat:
Love your quilts...just beautiful. I had to chuckle when I read your comment on the unfinished quilt and blocks. I was just looking at my book, trying to decide if I want to start something . I have a quilt retreat coming up and you know how that goes...hummm.
I love your quilts, the Stargazer is striking. I have wanted to try a Tuffet, maybe some day. Y get so much done it amazes me.
Wow love your quilts, wonderful finish.
Love your quilts they are both great! It's so easy to get behind with sew-alongs ... believe me I know;-)
I love the quilts and the other marvelous projects you have completed. Well done!
Now I love the very last quilt, that looks terrifically fun/
The other large quilt the last one? - made with me and my sister designs (my fav Moday line too)
What is the name of that one? I would love to buy the pattern. I must know
What's an unfinished quilt? LOL! I also have lots of those Farm Girl blocks and then I got sidetracked when I moved. It's been bugging me that I haven't done anything with them. And I LOVE your Strawberry Fields quilt and tuffet!
