Slow Progress...

... is still progress!!! :-)

I am getting my quilt top for last year's HGTV BOM together slowly.  The center is together, now I am working on the middle pieced border. This one is going to end up being 88 x 88~ I will have it done by July! LOL :-)




And I'm still making progress on Bonnie Hunter's Orca Bay mystery, which isn't a mystery any more. Lots of quilters in blogland have their tops together. :-)  I needed to stop and forage for more red strings or small pieces I could cut up... I just detested the thought of cutting yardage for strings! :-)  I am happy to say I have found a new batch and can get back to work on that step! And while I was cutting, I cut the 2.5 inch squares for the star blocks and sewed a few together. Yup, I am going to love this quilt!  :-)


That's all from here~
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!

I love the look of your "hole in the barn door" BOM quilt...looks like the hole has been filled in!

Beautiful! Those little corner stones are perfect and oh so tiny.
The BH quilt is going to be another beauty. Can't wait to see it finished, as I'm sure you are too.

Thanks for your kind words about my "Cabin Friends". I love your patiotic quilt. I didn't know HGTV had a BOM; yours is going to be beautiful.

Happy Stitching,

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
