Washi Dress

I love the dress version of the Washi pattern. Anna Maria Horner's new Field Study fabric was a perfect choice. School started Tuesday and I've been working like crazy in the sewing room trying to get caught up and organized.I did a bit of cleaning and discovered some fabric bleed on a few of the tiny stars I've been working on. Yikes! I spray tested a bunch of fabrics and threw out the ones that bled. Now, I'll be spray testing all of the finished stars before putting them into a quilt.  These blockes were sprayed with water and pressed. The blue one on the left had fabric bleed before even being sprayed. I'm glad I discovered this before piecing the whole quilt. The good news is that my cutting table is now actually clean enough to use! For months I've been using a smaller cutting mat on my sewing table.I have a few other quilts that I'm working on that I hope to share with you soon. I seem to have been on a quilt starting kick lately... I'll be working on some quilt finishes as fall progresses.

Narrow hand appliquéd bias strips. 1/16” quilting lines not going over the appliqué. I’m about a month in on the quilting and ALMOST finished. Whoop! Quilted with Invisalign on top and Decobob in the bobbin. Threads by @wo
This summer we watched my two oldest grand kids one day a week. Towards the end of the summer they started making projects on their own in the sewing room. They made lots of little projects from my scrap basket including pillow cases and tiny quilts
Here’s the layout with all but one block done. I’ll finish that last block when I get more of the baby poop green/mustard fabric. I put out the call and the internet provided! This top will be finished soon! This is a remake of an 1870s
I’m finally getting around to putting these stars together. I made the stars a few years ago and have been on the hunt for the perfect setting fabrics. These @carolynfriedlander prints are the perfect match for the 1800s reproduction prints in
