Fresh Sewing Day

Lily's Quilts

It's Fresh Sewing Day hosted by Lily's Quilts ~ a chance to look back on our last month's projects, as well as share about projects that really gave us pleasure.

Well, my month consisted of several bee blocks, finishing up the Solstice Star Series, and embellishing the scrappy depression blocks that have been languishing in my stash.

It's also been a month of suspense (defined in Bing's dictionary as enjoyable tension - exactly). Between my project for the Little Quilt - Sew, Vote, Swap Group, which is winging its way to its new owner; my FTLOS2 project, which I'm enjoying  having hang on my design wall until shipping day; and my entry in the Modern Mini Challenge, which I can't share for a few more days . . . well, let's just say it's more secrecy than my life usually contains!

I think my favorite projects this last month were the Little Quilt {here}, which was improvisational and where I fell in love with my hera marker; and my Sparkle Quilt {here} where I, quite honestly, loved what the contrasting sashing did for the quilt. Sooo that's it for February - can't wait to see what March brings!
