Lately I have been stealing quick moments to sew here and there. Since I last checked in I have finished the last of my blocks for my Farm Girl Sampler.
Hand Mixer
Penny Pig
And finally, Corn and Tomatoes.
If this block hadn't been my last, I would have quit this project. Seriously 94 itty bitty pieces go into this 6.5" block. It took me days of cutting because I just couldn't stand to cut such small pieces for very long. And sewing it took me awhile. I had to take breaks, because I felt cussing and screaming coming on.
I still have the sashing and setting stones to cut out, but I wanted to set it aside for a minute.
I felt the pressure to get the two tops I had waiting, basted.
So one night after the monster went to bed I got the floor mopped and went to work.
My Hello Darling quilt really is beautiful.
I cannot wait to get it finished.
I think it will be out on the sofa this Christmas Season to cuddle up with.
But first I want to get the Monster's Christmas gift done.
I'm in the thick of quilting it now.
I need a good stretch of time and motivation.
After these two are quilted I might put the Farm Girl away so I can FINALLY pull out my Blitzen and get it made!
