Completed my Scrap Happy Shoofly Feb 2019! It was stuck in my 800 quilts that needed binding pile and the goal in 2019 is to get those done.
I washed it and put on my bed!
Below are some other photos of it in progress and the block pattern
Gathering the fabric to start
organizing each block made it so fun to sew them up!
I am doing a lot of writing.. and when I'm doing a lot of writing my brain shifts gears and can pretty much either write.. or surf the internet.. yes.. that's how it works.
But I WANT to sew and I find doing little bits of my shoofly blocks is the perfect solution! This is the last photo I took of all the blocks before it had to come off the design wall for another project.
The blocks have been calling me.. the big pieces are in this bin with the top.
Before I put it all away I cut up a bunch more shoofly blocks so I could sew them as I worked on the other project. They are stacked by the machine... cute right?
A bit of progress has been made! I squeezed them up onto the wall next to the 'other' project that is being sewn.
Today it was sunny and breezy and springy!! So I took a writing break and went outside for a little photo shoot. It was windy.. did I say that already? I lost 3 pin in my garden, I hope I remember that in a few weeks when I'm cleaning out the flower bed!
I SO SO SO love this quilt! It will be bedsize and be on MY bed.
Quilted by Cindy and Dennis Dickinson
