I'm so thankful for all the pre cutting I've done in the past filling project boxes with projects. I do this mostly so I'll be ready for each Quilty Hug sew in. But it's been a blessing now that my mobility is limited. Everything is cut and ready for my to just sit and sew. I may have to do a lot of cutting once I've recovered to replenish my project boxes but for now I'm happily sewing.
These little nine patches were in one box. I had started them. They are now all sewn. I then framed them in a happy yellow for the one with orange centers.
I'm planning orange for the yellow centered ones. This would have been done but, I've misplaced the orange. How does that happen. I didn't think it was possible to lose BRIGHT ORANGE YARDAGE. I've been using it in more than one project but somehow it is lost. My neighbor took pity on me when I told her as she was borrowing my 1 1/2" strip die. We each have a Go and share dies. So while she was out she picked me up some more. Now I'll be able to finish these cute little blocks and put them into a happy Quilty Hug.
I've also been focusing on turning a few of my free pieced quilts into 5" x 7" greeting cards.
Each card has a blank inside and one of my original free pieced quilts on the front.They are currently in my Etsy Shop, just in case you are looking for a fun, unique card to send.
I did the same thing with 4" x 6" postcards. A fun quilt post card without the work. Send now. Frame later.
What fun things are you moving forward? Link up and let us see your progress.
