Weekend Wrap-Up

I had a wonderful long weekend filled with friends, food, fabulous conversations, and some sewing. Not only have I been working on my anniversary quilt, pics of the state of things following soon, I've also been spending time on this.

I still need to finish one side seam allowance with zigzagging and some hand stitches but then I can attach the bias binding and then...I can finally wear it if the weather is game! Do you hear me, weather? Play along, please.

Hopefully your weekends were just as fulfilling and relaxing as mine.

Take care and happy sewing!

Sunday Stitches

This weekend I made some mini HSTs with the 1 1/2" Triangles on a Roll that I won in Hadley's giveaway a few weeks back. Really a time saver if you want to make several HSTs of the same combination but especially helpful with such tiny pieces. Well, today I sewed them up a first batch with some of my precious Heather Ross fish.

L-o-v-e it! So much that I'm already auditioning fish for the second panel.

These triangles are really disappearing under the machine, they're so tiny. Just look!

I'll definitely be making more of these. Mini quilt? Cushion covers? Tote? Pouches? I don't know yet but I'm definitely enjoying the process. Unfortunately there's no fish with my nephew's name or these would totally be his. Though there's an unnamed one - I could stitch up his name... Hmm, we'll see where this goes.

What have you been up to?


Happy sewing!
