With a bit of wintery weather (wet but warm) I was happy to bunker down in The Palace and spend the weekend stitching.
On Saturday I did some Scrap Busting —
 |
My little pile is growing. It will be a small quilt but I haven't yet decided
exactly what size I want it. |
 |
A few more 9-patches for my Omigosh quilt.
These are my Leader and Ender project, another pile is growing |
Over at
Angela's soscrappy blog this month the scrap colour was teal/blues with a touch of green so I have a few less scraps in this colour now :-)
Sunday, being a new day, was time to focus on my
OMG project - my One Monthly Goal for June was to complete a second block in my Quiltmania Snowflake Lane hanging.
 |
| Out came my #40 weight Aurifil for the applique. |
 |
| Block Two completed!!! |
 |
| Isn't he a sweetie? |
 |
| Block 1 and 2 side by side. Hopefully next month block 3 will be with them! |
It's great to be moving on this project again - thanks to Heidi and the little push of making that One Monthly Goal :-). *
Here* is the latest linkup to see who else met their goal!. Wonder what I will work on next month...?
I've started the new week feeling content and, with winter still going on outside, I'm hoping to squeeze a few more sewing sessions in ♥
Have a good week - happy stitching,
Blocks 1 & 2 are absolutely darling! Those kitties are wonderful! Can't wait to see where this one goes. Your stash-busting projects have definitely taken a step forward!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress ! The cats are clever use of little pieces
ReplyDeleteI LOVE those little snowmen. Your blocks all look great. Those cats are going to be fun when they all get together. I love seeing all the scraps used in quilts. The more the better.
ReplyDeleteOh what lovely blocks you have made--
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see the cat one finished one of these days--
It is very humid and hot here right now--ac is running alot--so there goes any fabric money for the next couple months!!!
love and laughter, di

Love it all, but the snowman block is super cute!
ReplyDeleteLots of progress here--I am drooling over the little 9-patches for the Omigosh quilt! : )
Lots of fun details on your snowmen. I printed off a cat pattern like that way back when. Never got to it. Yours is coming right along.
ReplyDeleteLove what has been created in your Palace.....of course the Snowies have stolen my heart x
ReplyDeleteLove all your work Raewyn. I have the Omigosh pattern... maybe you could inspire me and we could make it along with each other? :-)
ReplyDeletesome more delights you have shared today cats so cute must have a go at them. Loving the snowmen too
ReplyDeleteLOTS of wonderful things going on at your house! Those cats are on my list of things to do. I don't think I have the fabric I want to use. Maybe I will look for some brights as I go around the shops for Row by Row this summer. I don't need to buy more someday fabric, just things I actually have a use for! I love those stars more each time I see them. The snowman ornament block is adorable, too. Do you have a winter that truly gets cold?
ReplyDeleteHi Raewyn,love all your blocks and oh my those snowman blocks are so cute....
ReplyDeleteGreat scrapbusting and your snowflake blocks are gorgeous. xx
ReplyDeleteLots of beautiful blocks Raewyn, you had a great sewing day! Your snowmen are just gorgeous, looking forward to seeing block three!
ReplyDeleteI am loving all the scrappy blocks. I am tempted to work on the cat one's too.
ReplyDeleteAnd the snowmen blocks look so good together. Love the fabric combinations there.
You have achieved a lot with all these projects.
Here summer is in full swing - hot and humid with high heat indexes and UV levels. SO -- I do what I did when I lived in the northern states, I stay inside with the air conditioning. Your blocks are all so neat and tidy in their boxes - what wonderful quilts they will make! And you appliqué is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour snowmen are very sweet! How many are there going to be?
ReplyDeletelovely projects... your Christmas one is such fun

Oh, Raewyn, I'm always so inspired by your posts! And how much you accomplish with your stick-to-it-iveness! I'm especially enamoured with the star blocks. I want to make them, too! XO
ReplyDeleteLovely blocks... isn't it great how having the one monthly goal gets us to the completion stage more often than not!?!
ReplyDeleteYou are making lots of nice different blocks using your scraps...
ReplyDeleteLoving those cute Snowmen....
Block 2 IS a sweetie! Your have so much going on, and all is adorable! I love the Friendship blocks, and of course the name of your leader ender project made me grin!
