I thought you might want to see some vintage fabric yardage.I found these long forgotten pieces of fabric yesterday while looking for something else in the sewing room. There is at least three yards of each.
I love that they are all the old narrow width- and just look at that lovely selvedge. Sigh.
Summer has arrived but I still don't spend much time outside because of the mosquitoes. I am eagerly awaiting the day they blow away.In the mean time I am trying to be productive with my time in the house. I have decided that one of my summer projects will be to finish as many unfinished projects in the sewing room as I can. You know, cleaning up the slow way. I am determined to get some of these piles cleared up.I am on my way with these star blocks that I made today. That is all I need to finish a queen size quilt that I started at Beaver Island Quilt Retreat in 2004!!
If I hadn't put four of the blocks in this quilt and mailed it away I would have only needed to make three more blocks. Three. That was all I needed to finish a queen size quilt.That is what I get for not finishing it at the time. I have had theunfinished top and fabrics to finish it in a pile for almost SIX YEARS.Yes, its time has come.Is anyone else up for a summer of Project UFO? Let's get those projects finished!!
