What we’re working on

 We didn’t have a lot of new things to show in the past couple of weeks. We’ve been working on finishes, getting bindings done and labels and things like that. Also doing layering on five or 6 more quilts. But this week, we started a couple of new projects, both using the Moonlight Stroll small wildlife panels. Marg started a new design to use them in. She got all of this done in one afternoon, but then had to stop because we don’t have anything in our stash that works for sashing. We will have to go shopping. And then I have started another Step Into Moonlight quilt pattern. The first one was given away, so I hope to have this second one as a fund raiser. And then here at home I’m slowly working on getting things finished. I’ve been working on this sampler for quite a while, but it got put into time out in order to finish some other things that had deadlines. However, it will be in time out again for a while. I need to do the quilting on these 2 quilts, also hopefully to be used in fund raising. We go through a lot of fabric and batting in the course of a year. We still have lots of scraps and leftover strips to use for quilt tops. It is the backings that we run out of frequently. We have given out 12 quilts so far this year. If we assume 3 1/2 yards per top and binding and another 3 yards for backings, that adds up to 78 yards of fabric used in just the first 4 months of this year. Rather mind boggling. Anyhow, I’ll link up to Finish, or not, Friday and then get to work on the quilting. I’m hoping to finish one of them this afternoon.
