    Top of my list is to figure out the piece sizes and make a sample DP4 rectangular placemat, to match one I made without a pattern a few years ago, basic but just haven’t put my mind to it.

    Thank you for doing this. I have a baby quilt on the piecing machine and a wedding quilt on the FMQ machine, so I have plenty to keep me busy. Actually, two baby quilts - I cut double what I needed.
    I have to make myself do my least favorite part of quilting today. Pressing a large back and quilt top to layer them. I don't mind the layering and pinning, but dislike pressing large pieces. 'Just do it.'

    Woo Hoo! Love VQW. Hi All. Good to hear from you. And look forward to pix.
    1. very first goal is to figure out posting pics from iPad. QB part is ok.
    2. Organize a series that started in a dream and continued to a day dream. This is real progress, the first art since moving.
    3. Make a wrap for sitting in a cold church building. Maybe it’s the difference of hot/humid Florida outside to comfort inside.
    4. Progress on daughter’s wall hanging.

    Yesterday finished a small detailed wall hanging from a prize at guild. 6 hours finishing. Get to start fresh today.
    Already have UFO sandwich ready for guild on Thursday.

    Hi everyone! Not sure how much sewing I will get done this weekend. We are starting a demo of my daughter's kitchen. The cabinets are on order, but we are taking out a small pantry and extending a wall. And that has to be done before cabinets. Also have to move some outlets and the water line for the icemaker.
    If I get to sew, there are many projects vying for my attention... some quilted hearts (IFAQH.com), a jelly roll veteran quilt, and binding for 5 other vet quilts.

    Goal is to have fab room all cleaned/cleared out for DS. We're 95% done which is the hard part. Just tried of he whole process.Moing the fab was a hoot. Thought of projects to do with so many pieces. Decided NOT to jot them down and just keep "moving".
    I know what's going to happen. Finding that ONE fab...will say to self...I know where it was before I moved everything here! Right?

    You actually did fine. If you click on the picture it will enlarge. Another way to do it (probably after posting) is copying the URL and then insert it using the landscape icon the one to the left of the smiley icon =
    By the way, what is the pattern number. I like what little of it that I see.

    Nice dress. I don't sew much in the way of clothing anymore, and sure wish the mending would disappear too.

    I am quite proud of myself. I got this baby top put together this afternoon. It was a quick project. Sure hope it makes some little kid smile.
