Q-Squirrel Pt 2

Here we are at almost mid-July and the 

self-quarantining continues.

Since I left you after part 1, 

here is just a bit of 

what I have been up to....

I participated in a Virtual Trunk

that ended up being a FAB

way to introduce myself to 

new followers.

You can see it HERE!

I like to be prepared so here

was my set up that day with

pages of notes, phone stand,

and a rack of quilts behind me:)

I continued playing with my friend's

Twelve Days of Christmas

that you can read more about

HERE.

Here is a test block for a new 

paper piece and applique' quilt

coming soon to AQ Magazine:)

If you like bright tropical colors,

this one will be right up your alley!

I finished the top of the little 
signature quilt 
started HERE and started
the next little quilt the 
group decided on.

Then (more) baby gift preps started!
Seems as if you just keep finding 
fun things to give the new family.
A space theme had been decided on
and this little art piece of mine
was perfect with lots of family heritage.
Read about it HERE.
The project it was intended for
was dismantled and the piece
came back to where I believe
it was meant to be all along!
It is framed and now hangs
over his changing table.

Then onto making a unique little

onesie for our new little one:)

My husband designed this

and was excited to have me

make it come to life.

SO EXCITING!

Next post will have all the details and

pictures of our new sweetie!

Twelve Days of Christmas

 I have had this Christmas line 

for a few years now...

The selvages are adorable

and the colors vibrant 

and wonderful!

When quarantine started, I finished 

a couple of work deadlines and then

promised myself that I would do a

project or 2 for myself.

A friend of mine had done a 

a sew along that this fabric

was perfect for!

Suzn Quilts designed an adorable

miniature using her tiny templates.

The 12 Days of Christmas

 The finished size is 12" and since

I have so much of this fabric, I

thought it would be fun to keep 

making bigger blocks to go with 

the miniature....

Friendship Stars

I liked the little house blocks

and trees so much that I made 

another 12" miniature with them.

Here is the template for the trees.

In my mini, I left off the trunks.

Here is what I have so far...

My 2 minis, some Friendship Stars &

some Pinwheel blocks.

The first block is one of Susan's Tiny/Mini

Dresden blocks that can be found in

her Around the Block pattern.

I can't wait to see it finished

and I hope you will go visit Susan's

blog and site for lots of fun

ways to spend our days.

Until next time,

Keep stitchin'.
