What's wrong with this picture?

Blue caterpillar.....

Red caterpillar

 

Green caterpillar

Yellow caterpillar

If you think it's the green and yellow you would be right! Time to start unsewing. In addition, I don't like the outer border, so all that has to come off. I will cut it down and use for binding.

Time to put on a movie and start ripping .

Thanks for stopping by,

Hand quilting on spools

Rounding the first corner on my hand quilting project. This is a spools quilts that I English Paper Pieced quite some time ago, and just now getting it quilted. The top is quilted in the Baptist Fan pattern. The borders are needle turn applique. This is a slow process, but also a very relaxing one.

Thanks for stopping by,

Lake Life - Aurifil Block of the Month February 2016

 

February block was a challenge, but a lot of fun.  I tried out the Quilt in a Day 6 1/2" square up ruler when making the HST and it worked like a charm.  I also tried the technique for making HST where you start with two squares and end  up with 8 HST. Don't you just love making a block where you can learn new techniques!

Swirl Away - Auriful Block of the Month; January 2016

I am participating in the Aurifil BOM Designer challenge.  This is block 1 for January and the designer is Heather Valentine of the Sewing Loft.  The design is to be blue and white, but I decided to use my stash of batiks and make a colorful block.  The white print is not a batik, but seemed to go well with batiks, so I used it.
