Sister's Choice Quilts

My interests are quilting, reading, cooking, family, decorating, and matters of style. I post regular quilting tutorials and book reviews of current fiction.

Just a Little Sewing

IMG_2699

I have not been spending a ton of time in my sewing room, but have gotten a couple of things done.  The block above is Block #2 from the Moda Block Head Sew Along.  This one was designed by Betsy Chutchian, whose fabric lines I have enjoyed.  This Sew Along will provide free patterns for 48 blocks during the course of 2017.

I have also finished block #21 in the Lisa Bongean Triangle Gatherings Sew Along.

And one more Pineapple block!

So, not a heck of a lot, but I have been reading and doing some fun things with Eva.  Taking it a day at a time.  The weather has been mild and it has been so nice to sit out on the porch again and read my books.  Hope you are enjoying Spring!

  1. Well done! A friend says that even planning a quilt in your head or considering border ideas counts as quilting time and I agreeee. Life is all about balance. 🙂

  7. Oh my goodness, stop telling me about your mild weather and sitting on your deck reading! LOL Its still in the minuses up here, but there is promise on the horizon soon. I finished two of Blockheads 2 on Sunday and I’ll have to order some more background fabric as I’m thinking that mine is too busy. And about the pineapples, I too have the Possibilities book, but I also have paper templates from Gigi’s Thimble and I’m leaning towards using the papers. What are your thoughts on this?? Have a great day on your deck in your sunshiney weather!!
