Update on DAGMT - day 3 to 5

Here I sit after a snow day and have noticed that I missed sewing on Monday and Tuesday so I played catch up today. Over two hours in the studio and I made progress. The Quilters by the Sea challenge is all cut out and I finished sewing one side of the blocks today.

I have been working per diem so I guess that the wallet will be happy but it does cut into the sewing time. Tomorrow is the guild meeting so it is off to Portsmouth, RI in the evening and I hope to be back in the studio in the morning.

Until next time ---

DAGMT day 2

Today was the day of days, I went into my studio and I came out feeling like I accomplished something. OK, really it was gathering two new projects together and continuing to work on more pieced hexies.

 Here is the first project that I pulled the fabrics together. Dublin is the quilt pattern and I finally have found something to use my Snowman Gathering fabric by Moda.

 This is an update on my pieced hexies project. Strips sewn and than cut to be basted tonight while I watch Downtown.

These fabrics have all been ironed and are waiting to be subcut for a guild challenge - so from here on in, you may hear about this project but no finished picture until after the guild reveal in June. I am having fun so far and it is only the 2nd.

By the way, I am a true northerner - it is always 6 more weeks of winter - just look at a calender.

DAGMT - day 1

DAGMT - day 1

Lots and lots of hexis. I have gotten my travel kit ready so that the hands will be busy during several upcoming meetings and events. This is my self imposed diet, if I am hand piecing I can not be eating. Today I just basted solid hexis but hope to have some pieced hexies very soon. Pictures will follow as soon as I find my camera.
