I
accomplished a lot on my break. A week at home with no deadlines
gave me time to dream and relax. I made a few changes in the sewing
space, did some planning, and cut out two projects with dies I got
for Christmas.
My
husband and I enlarged my design wall, adding reinforcement wood
strips behind the insulation and changing out the cover fabric.
Moonshadow
This week's project is the last one I quilted in 2020. I absolutely
love the yellow and charcoal batik fabrics. You might recognize the
yellow from another recent quilt. I always try to save every
remnant. I cut enough tiny triangles to make 25 Hattie's Choice blocks. After
adding the border, Moonshadow finished out at 48” square.
I
quilted with yellow thread in a fancy feathered serpentine stitch,
both horizontally and vertically. I hung it in our living room after
taking down holiday quilts.
