Design Wall Monday


I am almost to the stage in my current leader/ender project where it becomes the main project and a new l/e needs to be started. Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville fame has issued the Cheddar Bow Tie Leader-Ender Challenge. I wasn't going to do it. No, I wasn't going to start any more new projects. But........

I have a drawer full of 2 1/2" background squares, a drawer full of partial 2 1/2" strips. And I have been wondering what I was going to use for my next l/e project. I do want to make a cute bag for my g tablet. Does it sound like I'm rationalizing something here??? I have had my eye on some cheddar......I don't have any in my stash. I could make the cute bag from my stash and then decide if I need to buy that cheddar fabric......you all know I'm going to. :)

Head over to Judy L's and see other fabulous design walls and wish Judy luck with getting her new wall up and filled with beauty.

OPPS, Bonnie got another one...That is funny! I saw your thumbnail but only noticed the trees. Have fun with the bowties they are adictive. I can't just do one at a time, as the leader/ender

Your stack of trees is wonderful. It won't take long now to finish the top.

Wow look at all those quilts! Amazing...

Your trees are wonderful. and what are you going to do with your bow ties?

Cathy said...

I love your trees!!!!!! They will be fabulous all put together. Starting a new leaders and enders isn't really starting a new quilt. Not really...... maybe......... I say go for it.

I too love your colorful trees! And the bowties? Now I have to go and check out Bonnie's project...

Your tree blocks are great! Can't wait to see the top. It is darn hard to resist Bonnie and her projects, isn't it?

Lovely leaves on those trees. I love all the colors. Leaders and enders aren't really the same as new projects. Especially if something else is moving off of the list to make room for something new. It is more fun to sew along with everyone else. Cheddar, yum....

I am a big fan of the tree quilt block! I am really enjoying the scrappy quilts I am seeing this week.

I LOVE your trees! The bowtie l/e project is sooooo tempting - isn't it? I'm trying to decide if I want to do that or another "Christmas Lights" - either way the cheddar is yummy - but red is nice, too - or maybe blue - or maybe I could make trees - or... ;))
