This is on a round robin block from my Sewbuds group. The Cast On stitch was the TAST stitch for this week, and it's used on the feather stitch on this triangle.

Days late and many dollars short, that's me. But here is as much as July is getting for now. There will be fill-ins around the edges when I sew the blocks together ( Read more... )

This is the block that came for my current RR with SewBuds. That's the same group for which the heart lotto is going. The first block from Janie was pretty full, so I sent it back, and she sent this smaller one. It still didn't have a lot of room, and there's one more person after me, but I put this across one corner seam that remained.

My SewBuds group has a CQ round robin going on. In August, I was supposed to work on Carol's block, but I didn't manage it. However, I also didn't lose it. Last night, here's what I did, and I'll mail it on Tuesday.

Well, I haven't done a lot, but I will get to it now that I'm not making more tops for Dakota Cabin Quilts. Here are some pictures I haven't posted of the work I've done on it so far ( Read more... )

Our spring CQ round robin is over and my stocking has returned, much the better for the trip. Here are some pictures. I'm sorry some of them are a little fuzzy. I had the green hand on all of them, but as I've learned with this camera, that doesn't always mean a good picture.

The whole fuzzy thing:

I'm still working on Gail's rr. I didn't get very far in the last couple of days. I added the beads and sequins to the snowman and cardinal. I started another one of Kathy's seams, #34 this time, though it could change. She has several that are based on the chain-stitched arrowheads, and I'm not completely sure I will stick with 34.
