Humming in the Sewing Room

 First thing in the morning, I put the borders on this little butterfly and flower quilt.

 Then I figured out how to use up every last bit of fabric to piece this strip so the backing was long enough to work!

 and then I loaded it up on the frame!

 I did a cute butterfly/fairy wings/ angel wing pantograph in a pastel thread.

 It took a few hours and several good resting time but I got it finished!

 The binding was put on completely by machine and now I can give it away to a newly born little girl!

 And just because the design wall was empty, I pulled this pile of blocks back out to put them together.   I had to trim each block to square them up, then sew them together!

 I need to buy just the right combination of rainbow fabric for the borders!

 Here is a neat trick for storing blocks and newly cut fabric-line a pizza box with parchment paper!

 It will keep your blocks in order and together until you get to them again!

 I have enough squares to make another kid quilt out of these using the disappearing pinwheel again.   It was that fun to make and since I have the fabric, I will make another!

The quilting frame was empty so I loaded another quilt from Millie.   She is still using up the pile of vintage blocks she has and so I will begin work on this one!
