Finally Friday

Again, no sewing done today.  I had planned on going to the sew in at the library, but when push came to shove, I couldn't get myself to get around and go.... MAYBE tomorrow, if only for lunch :).
I did redo the tension on Mo'e AND DID SOME QUILTING....I'm still feeling stitches when I run my hand underneath the quilt, but I tested and looked and it was fine... it's a wall hanging for me, so I'm just going to finish quilting, binding it and call it 'close enough'.

I did get some more blocks made yesterday... I was transferring them over here from my phone while I was telling you that I QUILTED today ( just a few minutes at a time, but better than none at all!!)

 the cathedral window was so bulky from all the layers of fabric, so I took a chance and trimmed out everything that was behind that brown in the center --- sooo much better now.  I also stitched on both sides of the white so that big toes or fingers or whatever else won't get caught under the edges.

this flying geese block is Michael's... I'm thinking I'd better change the side borders to a brown.  I think I'll like it better when I do.
 
I had some small gold squares sitting next to my machine so I decided to use them to make another star block, but there were still some squares left, so I thought "why not put them on the corners and see how that works"...It's different - I'm not in love with it, but I don't hate it either.  Important part is some scrap fabric was used.

Guess that's it for tonight.  I think I'll try to work for another five minutes or so on that quilt.. Cool Kids comes on at 8:30 which is less than an hour from now so I'll see what I can do between now and then.

take care....

What to work on next

 I finished the two gift quilts - and both have been delivered to a parent of the little girl recipient. I have the requested photo from one...
