Design Wall Monday – December 26, 2011

Our last Design Wall Monday of 2011.  A new and exciting year is ahead for all of us.  Let’s commit to starting and finishing lots of new projects in 2012, whether they be sewing, quilting or knitting projects!

My design floor has a zillion flying geese.  These will go together, 8 per block, and I have a few of the blocks done.



Design Wall Monday – September 12, 2011

I feel like I’ve met a major goal every Monday that I have something on my design wall.  Here’s where I am with the green D9P.

The blocks are all sliced and diced and ready to sew together.



Design Wall Monday – September 5, 2011

After my very brave start to sharing my design wall again last week . . I have nothing to show today.  I’m sorry — I really thought I would but I don’t.  I have excuses . . I always do, you know!

I have a block in the new Quiltmaker 100 Blocks magazine that will be out in November.  I had started a project using my block design but as with most everything else, it got stuck aside with the move.  When the editor asked if any of us had projects to share, I thought it would be impossible for me (1) find my half done project and (2) get it quilted and in on time.  I did find it and I put Bears in the Farmhouse aside to work on the project.  I got the top finished on Saturday night and fully intended to start my green monochromatic project and get it on the design wall before this morning.  But then I talked Vince into setting up the longarm.  I hadn’t planned to do it til we got a permanent house but that’s looking like it may not happen.  We got everything done but cannot find the back handles.  I packed all that in the box with the head but the packers took it all out and re-wrapped it and must’ve put those handles in a different box.  We spent hours and hours searching through boxes trying to find them.  We never did and then there’s such a huge mess in the sewing room, it will take hours to get it put back together again.

So . . nothing on my design wall to share. And my project for the magazine isn’t quilted so probably will not get included and I still don’t know where my back handles are! :(



Design Wall Monday – July 11, 2011

OMG!  I totally forgot about the Design Wall!

If I could put knitting up on my design wall, I’d have something to show but I can’t so I don’t!  :)
