Gay, love you color choices. Soft but full of eye interest. I see the look of perfection in your blocks.

My progress has been held up by the Olympics but I did get 16 blocks assembled and on the design wall. Hope to get more done before posting a photo.

I did manage to get 3 potholders bound and done, but not until after dinner. In the morning, DH wanted to go to the beach. The water was so clear that I could wade out waist deep and still see my feet. I watched a baby crab follow its mama in the ocean! Then Mom's twice daily visit/care took the rest of my sewing time for the day. BTW, I bound one potholder with the bias seam on the outside! Didn't fix it. Looks fine.
Today, I want to tackle flannel burp cloths. But now I am thinking about those cute tote bags....

Well this last day of VQW I will be sandwiching and start quilting my latest finish. A lady came by our guild meeting and brought fabric she wanted to get rid of. There was a piece of black and white fabric just big enough for me. And it was all FREE. How lucky is that?
I hope all have had a great weekend. Thanks for hosting Raggiemom

Hi Kiddies, thinking I'm done. I got the one deadline item that I had so I figure I'm golden.

Here's the front finished...






The back took on a life of it's own, 6 hours! Photos washed out, it's much more muchier in person,

Hope ya'll get done everything you wanna. Enjoy

WendyMcD….your projects are so fun! Also interesting how you got your photos to post directly rather than just the small icon.

WendyMcD--love the Yoda back!

Thanks for quilting with me this weekend. Mom and I are on our "mystery trip". She is trying to figure out the theme. It's roadside attractions . Today we saw a Lewis and Clark statue, a head butting statue, Lady Tron's Diner, Santa Claus (several things in the town). Tomorrow we'll enter Illinois . Might even stop at a quilt shop! See you all next month.

WendyMcD - those are awesome! I was able to get all the binding pressed and measured (I made enough!!) But life got in the way today, or should I say DH guilt-ed me into going with him to a friends house while he worked on the wiring in the garage. 5 hours of wasted time for me. I was able to mark the quilt that I did the binding for, I'm going to try and apply the binding then trim so I don't have as many loose quilting threads. I plan on triming one side at a time while I hand stitch it down.

I got one and a half blocks made from Bonnie’s leader/ender before DD messaged to see if DGD age 3 could come for the afternoon….sewing can wait, she is growing so fast!
Thanks for the sew along everybody, and Raggiemom for hosting.

My progress report isn't too impressive. I finished quilting the flying geese batik quilt, trimmed it and made the binding but didn't get it attached. Still working on random scrap nine patches and I probably will be working on these for the rest of the week.

Well here is my contribution to the VQW. The blocks are laid out but not sewn together. I am considering sashing the blocks in white with the plum print as corner stones. The original pattern should have had one more row but I cut myself short on the small yellow print. I tried to "fudge" it but I needed less than a fat 8th to make the remaining segments for one block. Nope can't buy more, it was and older scrap donated to me and it did not have a salvage. Oh, well, it is all from stash and the extra partial blocks I have will likely go on the back in some fashion.

I did not do any quilting on my other VQW project. All I have is time and I can get'r done this week.....maybe.

See everyone Labor Day weekend.
