Design Wall Monday Sept 10, 12


I had one of the busiest weekends. I sewed with good friends on Saturday then I had a dog agility trial on Sunday. My parents helped out with my kids. The dog and I did great at our trial with two passes and we get to move up a level in one of the agility games. 

Now my wall and to see other walls Patchwork Times. I have taken up Bonnie Hunter's Leader's and Ender's challenge this year, the 3 1/2" spools. I did some more blues and started doing some Orange from the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I was far too busy to make a scrap post on Saturday so I am showing them off today. 

I added this to the Scrap Saturday as the blocks are apart of my Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2012 at Soscrappy's Saturday post.


I also got the first three hexagon flowers done. We still just see were they take me. 


Today is a little cooler and I expect we will get frost this week, maybe Tuesday night. I keep picking more garden. I picked 16 cucumbers this weekend. They are taking over. I do not have enough room in the fridge so they sit on my counter.


I have also picked half my basil. I am chopping it and packing it on olive oil and freezing it for later use. I should be able to have pesto pasta this winter.

  2. Congratulations for the good marks for you and the dogs :*) Your spool blocks are really cute and are going to make a colorful quilt! And hexies are always cute, no matter the color of course! But you've sure got some lovely oranges there :*)

  3. The spools are fun, it's neat to see them appear on different blogs. Years ago I made a quilt by paper-piecing and I swore I would never do one again, but I am weakening! It would be nice to have another project to be able to grab and take with me without taking a sewing machine.

  4. Loving your spools! I will probably start on those after I get my bow ties finished. Your hexagons are too cute, orange is one of my favorite colors.

    Have a wonderful and Blessed day
