And still no photos posted. I looked at my April project list, and only a couple have been touched. My guild had their big retreat in May, and I got away for 3 nights/3 days. I got Mitchell's cat ironed down, and that was enough. I took some cheap batik jelly rolls and got those strip pieced for an impromptu quilt. It still needs black strips between the 8" panels. I also put the components together for the wall quilt that had the cute striped cats in the corners, but left it as a top.
I did get that Project Linus quilt bound. I have bought the materials I need for the outline stitched cat blocks, and transferred the patterns to the muslin.
So I invited my small group to come over this Saturday, as my incentive for some housecleaning, and to restart some of these projects. I'll also help Amanda take a small horse wall hanging to the next level, with her getting the fusible on the fabric, and the pieces to a foundation for fusing.
Plus we have a Sunday afternoon booked for sewing at a local fabric store. So for Saturday, my focus will be on
1. stripping the batik panels, and maybe fusing the applique details so that top is done;
2. layering the kitty in the corner wall hanging for quilting (on Sunday?);
3. quilting a few blocks on the t-shirt quilt (need those pins for #2;
4. work with Amanda here and there
If there is additional time, I'll make myself quilt a few more t-shirt blocks.
