Rocky Road to Grayson is a blue WIP January finish! First goal accomplished. I started in January 2022, so it’s been around the studio for an age. It took much longer than I anticipated to finish, so I did not get any blue houses made for the Quilter’s Cove QAL.
I got seven full & one half block made for Starlets by Modernly Morgan & 14 string blocks for Stardust. The previously posted Nine-Patch & Snowball blocks round out my goals for the month. So I feel pretty dang good about things, even without the houses.
I got blue binding made & attached to County Fair from last year’s RSC & evening binding has begun.
Since it’s blue this month, I thought I’d report on my orange peels. I’m appliqueing these by hand each Monday morning in my handwork group. I got them all out this month to check on progress. I’m about 2/3 of the way through, so I should finish these up this year!
These charity baby quilts got bound this week & are ready to be donated. The left was made from orphan pieces leftover from the quilt I just finished, & the right was made from a friend’s unwanted charm pack.
that looks like a bonnie quilt – yours is beautiful
It is. But smaller & with no border & blue background instead of yellow!
Hi Sue! You got a lot of great sewing done this month. Your Rocky Road to Grayson is drop dead gorgeous! I love all the colors and details. I hope all is going well with you. Will you be attending the Worldwide Quilting Day Event at the Sandy Senior Center this year?
Another busy blue stitching month, I love the little blue and yellow cot quilt. Why do I never think to make something like that, I’ve got a whole pile of donated charm squares. Guess I should find wherever I’ve put them and check them out. Thanks for the inspiration.
Rocky Road to Grayson is a beautiful top, Sue! Way to go – getting it done this month!
Dunno. I need to get details.
It’s no pressure sewing, you get rid of fabric & you get a donation to make you feel good. Win-win-win!
Thanks. I’m pretty happy I managed it. There wasn’t near as much done as I thought when I had this crazy idea!
