Quilt Progress -- Sewcialites 3, Fat Quarters by the Dozen and New Plans

Hello, dear friends.

My last post didn't show up on reading lists for a couple of days. So, if you missed last Friday's cross-stitch update, you can find it here.

The planned sewing weekend was a success. First up is Fat Quarter Shop's Sewcialites 3, block 22.
                                 
Down to Earth Block was created by Wendy Sheppard.
                                 
Next was Fat Quarters by the Dozen. This is another quilt along from the Fat Quarter Shop. I have assembled the quilt center and added the first border.            
                                  
I do not have fabrics for the two remaining borders so this one will sit for a bit. I used my Lori Holt stash for this so it shouldn't be too difficult to find fabrics that will work. All of Lori's fabric lines are similar in color and work well together.

Lastly, I volunteered to make a couple of quilted table runners for a charity raffle that will be held at a retreat I am attending in September. I decided on patterns and pulled fabrics from stash.

Freshly Picked...

                                            
Life's a Picnic...




My next post will be on Friday, July 31st with a cross stitch update.

See you soon,

Fat Quarters by the Dozen is lovely, Jeanna! I like the way all the different blocks went together with their sweet colors and the white background. Looks like those will be pretty tablerunners, too!

Hi dear Jeanna, goodness, bless your heart. My Monday blog post which appeared on my blog last night 🌙 at 7 p.m. EST hasn't shown up in the Blogger news reader.
I am glad I am not alone, dear friend. ❤️
I love all your blocks. I really like your taste in fabrics, patterns and colours.

Jeanna said...

Thank you, Linda. Blogger sure is frustrating, isn't it? I appreciate your visits and the very sweet comments!

The top looks so pretty. Love the patterns for the runners & the fabrics you are using.

The quilt top came out great! I love the table runners and fabrics you chose to make. I love making table runners. They don't take too long and they're fun to make. I'm sure they'll be a hit at the charity raffle.

The Fat Quarters by the Dozen top looks lovely. The two table runner patterns also look promising.

Jeanna said...

I'm hoping I can sew them up quickly. The patterns and fabrics have been around a while.

Your blocks are adorable, Jeanna and I love the fabrics for the table runners you are going to be working on - so pretty. I sure wish Blogger would work out its kinks in respect to the reading list. Don't you? LOL Have a lovely week. Hugs.
