What We Are Working on

 We didn't get a whole lot of sewing done in our Prayers and Squares group yesterday. We did get 6 quilts layered though, several of which needed backings sewn. I’ve shown pictures already of the quilts we layered, except for this latest top finish. It is called Cross Creek, a design by Pat Speth. I’ve done 2 more sampler blocks, also designs by Pat Speth. I have a total of six now, almost enough to start on the quilt as I go process on them. Our group has also received a request for a Star Trek themed quilt. I recently discovered this website, called Fandom in Stitches which has all kinds of mostly paper pieced themed designs, including one for the original series Enterprise. I have the back end of the ship finished, which will take the ship to halfway done. There will be lots of other elements added to the quilt before it is finished and ready for gifting. I’ll play with this some more tomorrow and hopefully get the ship finished. I brought 3 of the layered quilts home with me and will begin the quilting process today using my domestic machine and walking foot. 

I’ll link up to Finish, or not, Friday

  1. Who knew there was a fandom in stitches site. Definitely a place to turn when you need to personalize a quilt by honoring the recipient's interest. The orange flame fabric is perfect.

  2. Wow! Your work is beautiful! I see a fabric in the photo of the two quilt blocks you posted, that looks like a hydrangea print. It is so pretty!

I love reading all your comments, and am grateful for each one. I try very hard to answer them all, but lately I haven’t quite been able to answer all of them.
