Coming Up To The Finish Line

 I think I may need about 8 more little houses,as I get them trimmed up I'm placing them on navy blue fabric to get a visual of how the quilt will look

Inbetween finishing this quilt up for RSC I've been finishing up last year's Fall projects along with other UFO's LoL pillow forms are pricey when you want big pillows so I make my own ,I'll talk more about that when I finished the other one,I don't want to go into 2023 with unfinished projects& someone asked how many quilts do I have unfinished🤔aww that would be 4 LoL

A Few More Houses

 I sewed up 8 more little houses for my RSC quilt ,I tried to guesstimate how many I'll need to make a good cuddling up size ,I like to make them around 56X66 give or take how many & how wide I make the borders,spreading out what I have so far to see how many across I need,sizes of borders etc. I've guesstimated 44-55 little houses which will depend on their size after I get them all trimmed 

Little House Blocks Decisions

 I've seen a lot of unique ways to sew up a little house quilt from different sizes,arrangements to color themed but I think I've found an example that I'm pleased with,the purple strip is not my color choice,I was just trying to get a visual of how'd it all look separated with borders,I think deciding on what color of strips in-between the rows will be the hardest part & I'm running out of time to decided as the end of 2022 scrap Challenge is too near for comfort😄the sample uses black as borders ,I've never used black ,what do you think?

Just Had To Sew One More

 Another take on Simplicity  4552, this is the best go to pattern,especially if you're ever in a sewing slump where you want to sew but the mojo's just not kicking in,I luv the easiness & quickness of the pieces& how that it can go from casual to dressy just by the fabric choices 

Other news from the sewing room ,things are getting down to the nitty gritty with the little house quilt for the 2022 Rainbow 🌈 Scrap Quilt Challenge, more houses to be cut & sewn ,at this point it's too late to think "what was I thinking" for I need more than I was thinking😄but I have a plan for the borders,as 2022 is quickly coming to an end it's time to put the petal to the metal as the old saying goes for speed lol 

A Few Skirts

 In between catching up on  quilts,blocks & Fall projects,I whipped up a few skirts for a Sew  Up Your Stash contest I joined & this weekend will definitely be dedicated to catching up the little house blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge over at ww.http://superscrappy.blogspot.com

I want to get all UFO's ("unfinished projects") outta the way because there's  an all day Christmas dress sewing day with a friend in the works coming up soon 

so much to sew,so much to finish,so much to show you,untill next time happy sewing!

Happy Little Houses

 Bob Ross the painter had his happy little trees,I have my happy little houses,catching up on a few blocks,I have a few ideas of how I want to assemble them for my quilt,Oct will be over as quickly as it came so I've gotta get busy😂

Keeping Blocks In Order

Do you ever get all your blocks organized & in order only for mishaps like falling off the table only to have to go back to the reference photo" if you thought to take one" lol ,I've had my rag quilt spread out on the cutting table & thinking since this is a work in progress & I really really need my table to catch up on challenges I'm a part of I pined the remaining blocks in the order to be sew hopefully this will work& I can get it finished up in no time!
