I’m so close to finishing Miss Hitchens’ Whimsy … I can hardly believe it.
I’ve calculated just four evenings of stitching will complete the remaining two small corner blocks.
(once I have prepared them of course)
And then I just need a few hours to assemble because all the border strips are sewn…
…and the centre is done.
It is such a *good* feeling.
So that is the first of the three quilts that are in the *Priority Pile*.
The second is the 1800s Sunburst Quilt…maybe progress is too specific a word for this. Chugging, nay Plodding along might be more apt but I am getting there and I periodically have another finished block to admire.
I still get a thrill out of finishing one and deciding “which one next?” At the moment I seem to be drawn to these Vermiculate style patterns.
Once MHW is finished I’ll be able to get a bit more gung ho with these blocks.
And I’ve decided to use these Leaf Templates from Made Studio for the elipse corner applique…I’ve used these before and really like the accuracy and speed of these ready made templates.
The third is my OMG Ombre (that’s the working title lol)
With the arrival of more of the fabrics I wanted I can get cracking on this (yay)
I’m itching to start sewing again on this… But first I’m going to prepare those last two MHW blocks…today.
I hope you are enjoying your UFO’s too.
thanks for visiting
til next

Wonderful projects Margaret – so inspiring!! Miss Hitchins is beautiful – going to be a great workshop there. Love the fabric selections in the other two as well – just divine! I have some of that blue ombre and sneak it into as many projects as I can. It is always so exciting to see what you are working on – thanks for sharing your progress.
Thank you Hilda, Ombres are so gorgeous aren’t they! I just can’t get enough of them
You have some beautiful quilts in the works. Just lovely. I love all of the different borderie perse pieces. Can’t wait to see them all finished.
Thank you Gina…I’m definitely having a finishing frenzy
