Well, it has been a busy week. :-) LOL First up, the Vintage Schnibble project for this month~
When Sinta and Sherri announced it would be Lincoln from 'Another Bite of Schnibbles' by Carrie Nelson, I thought it sounded familiar~ and not because I have paged through the book so many times that I now have loose pages. :-) I went to my 'waiting-to-be-quilted' stash and yes! Indeed I had made this Scnibble in wall hanging size in the past.
I decided it really wouldn't be playing fair to just show that one to y'all. :-D So I pulled out all my patriotic scraps~ and believe me, some were really small! You can't see where I did some creative piecing. ;-) And made the larger size 'Lincoln'~
I chose not to add any border so it would be like the smaller one. It measures 63.5 inches square~ the perfect size for the back of our love seat. ;-) Not sure when I will get it quilted, but surely before next July! :-o
I just took this off the machine on Monday. It is quilt #3 for my Mom. We both made this quilt top from kits I had purchased from JoAnn's some years ago (on clearance~ I love a sale!). I pieced mine on my treadle (and it is on that waiting-to-be-quilted shelf) :-/ As soon as I get all my Mom's quilts finished, I plan to get busy with that shelf! LOL
Hope you are finding lots of time for sewing and quilting this summer!
Until next time~
Happy stitchin'!
