Design Wall Monday


Not a lot of time was spent in the sewing room this week. I did make a new block to replace the orange and brown one--much better. I cut more friendship star pieces. I made a few more bow tie blocks.

I made a bag for my tablet using an online tutorial but it turned out to be too tight. It will be for the Kindle instead. It turned out really cute so I'll use the same idea of that one and make another for the tablet.

I finished the Trees Left Standing top that I showed last week. I knitted a pair of slippers. I'm going to try to felt them today so I can show them off tomorrow. Now that everything has been documented, I guess I spent more time in the sewing room than I realized. Isn't that fun!

This morning will be spent cutting tumbler blocks and baking zucchini bread/muffins for the freezer. This afternoon, I get to go to the dentist again. Yes, I do know how to have fun.

I jumped for joy when I saw Judy L has a design wall and today she has something fabulous on it. Go check it out and check out other great projects.

You accomplished a lot this week! That's one of the benefits of blogging...to remember all the work you did!

Yes, you have done a lot this past week. So, are you going to show the slippers?

Your orange and brown block may not play nicely with the rest of your blocks on the wall but OH, the possibilities. It is almost fall after all.

Lots of different projects on your wall. I need a separate wall for almost completed quilts and another for ongoing projects. I thought I would have two walls but I have filled them up with cabinets and shelves. Looking forward to seeing your tumblers.

It' is so nice to see stuff on Judy L's Design Wall again. Your wall is like mine, with many projects at once. It must be our Quilter's ADD.

Sounds like you did get a lot done. I will need to look for your slippers when you get them posted.

I like your new block, it blends - but I love that brown and orange one too. So are you going to design a quilt around it?
