Hello everyone,
It’s been almost a month since I posted, but what a month it’s been! December is always a busy month for most people, add to that the political show and time flies! In any case, I’ve continued to work on my quilt in between everything else so thought I’d pop those photos down in this post.
I’m participating in a quilt along by Suzys Sitcom called Seagulls Paradise. The reason I was drawn to this quilt is that I used to live in Victoria on Vancouver Island. I miss the sounds of the sea, and seagulls are one of those sounds. I’m having so much fun getting the top done. I haven actually quilted anything together yet.
To recap...blocks one and two
Block three
This is now the top third of the quilt top done. I’m ready to start quilting soon.
Her next free block is due out on the 24th...I’m looking forward to it.
I should mention that Suzy does up patterns for pillows and table runners too, and actually some of these quilt blocks could be used for that purpose. She’s working on a series of table runners for 2021...one a month. The patterns are always free for the first month, but you can order the whole pattern for a fee, or pay for each month after the fact. She has a Facebook page which I’ll link to below.
Hope you’re enjoying my quilting journey.
I did up some nail polish card fronts yesterday as well but haven’t done anything with them yet. The smell was so strong though. Idk if I want to do that too often. Wooo Lord...who needs wine after that!
I’ll probably do something fairly simple with them because they’re busy on their own - - except for that insipid one on the bottom. Lol
Hey, have a great weekend!
Blessings!

Loving your seagulls Carmen 0 they are fabulous, you get so much expression in their faces with the way you vary their eyes.
ReplyDeleteThe backgrounds are amazing - the only time I made them I worked outside, and it was still pretty potent, and next morning when I walked into the studio I nearly go bowled over!!
Stay safe
Blessings
