To-Do for the week of March 22nd-28th:

2. Work on a set of placemats.√Done
3. Bind a short runner for my sewing machine. √Done

To-Do #1

I wrote a post about finishing Lucy’s I Spy quilt (read it here) and got a decent shot of the front in between some wind gusts. I’m definitely putting the curtain rod on my shed to good use!

To-Do #2

I decided that since I am such a fan of sunflowers that I need a set of four sunflower placemats and have chosen the use the Sunflower for Ukraine block for the center of the placemat, and I will sew 4″ x 12.5″ rectangles to either side to make the placemat the right size. I’ve gotten two blocks done so far. Here is the first one I made on Saturday.

To-Do #3

I am delighted with how nice the Kantha Cloth by Valori Wells in Pomegranate purchased from Etsy shop Modern Quilter looks with some Alison Glass Kaleidoscope Pomegranate binding in the photo below. I love the Kantha running stitch so much (similar to Sashiko but there is not so much emphasis on uniformity of stitches) that I have decided to participate in Alison Glass’ Stitch Club 2022 Kantha Sew-Along that starts April 19th. I have plenty of gorgeous Alison Glass fabric, and I think 2022 is the year to start putting it to good use!

To-Do for the week of March 29th-April 4th:

1. Make two more Sunflower for Ukraine blocks.
2. Work on some flying geese for my three temperature quilts.
3. Write my April 2022 OMG post.
