SWEET TWEET 7 PLUS 8 AND ATTIC WINDOWS
I am finally back to working on Sweet Tweets again. I took most of January off dealing with reorganizing my sewing room. Glad that is done, and sure discovered a lot of really old UFO's and have spent some time dealing with them. Oh yes, there are more in there but it was a start.
Block 7 is completed and block 8 has a very good start. Just a couple more blossoms to finish up and fuse on. Just block 9 to go and it should be available later this week. The 10th month is just the border instructions. Once I have all 9 of the blocks done and sewn together I will see about the border fabric and binding.
I pulled out my Attic Windows blocks this past week and got them sewn together. It is bright and cheery but with very limited fat quarter fabrics available it has lots of repeats. I am quilting it with a serpentine stitch and variegated orange thread. It will be going to my guild's charity quilt group and off to someone that hopefully will love it. It is 48 by 56 in size so a nice size quilt for this purpose.
