I am happy to tell you that I have only one of the five quilts left to bind. It is a bugger, will try to finish it today.
Unfortunately, I am only able to show you two of the quilts.
Here is one of them.
You do know if you are SHORT, that it stinks to be SHORT????
I had to go and get my step stool and carry it around with me while trying to decide how to takes photos of this quilt.
When I was making the Fancy Forest quilt I said to myself after making the fox block that one day I was going to make a fox quilt. I am so thrilled with how it turned out.
I used Island Batik scraps (again)...... You just need 2 1/2" x 18" for the actual fox, the black and white fabric don't take much either. Trust me when I tell you that I had left over bindings that worked great, left over scraps large enough to cut down to 2 1/2"....
I used Aurifil Grey, White, and Red 50 weight threads. I do get thread in my box from Island Batik but I also buy a lot from Hancock's of Paducah or on amazon. I am trying to get a stash up but in the last few weeks I have gone through one spool of grey and have almost used up a spool of off white and I call it a light yellow brown # 2310... Oh well...I do know how to order online, much to my husband's dismay.
These last few weeks have been so fun in my sewing room. It is not often I can just spend a lot of time in there. I am trying to get all five of these quilts finished before I move on to other projects. I am dying to do the Ocean by Elizabeth Hartman, I have an idea for my Sept challenge with Island Batik, well...you know...more projects you want to do than have time for.
Hope you all have an amazing week-end.
