I am working on a scrappy bowtie quilt set in the circular pattern. It is out of 30's repros and I think I have cut 170 different fabrics all from my stash. 288 bowties for a queen sized quilt. The blocks are 6". It isn't a very challenging quilt but I think it will be pretty when it is done. I love the thirties fabrics.

Oh my all these projects are so beautiful!
I have to work on my button holes so I can wrap up the little girl's bonus dress I found.
I seam ripped apart all my points on the red quilt I'm working on, they all need to be cut down and re sewed. FYI, always remember to double a pattern means you doubled the seam allowances, aka don't double something you have never made before.
Oh and I'm playing with hexgons for an art quilt, but I haven't started sewing it yet. :D

I'm working on a split 9 patch - it intrigued me so much I put everything else down for a while. Something tells me that as I keep working to get the patches laid out just right, I'll be working on it for a while too!

WOW Sharon that is so pretty!
I am still working on the flip-flop quilt for my granddaughter and have started cutting fabric for a quilt pattern called Little Cedar Tree. It's a pattern I found in a book that I checked out of the library called Marsha McCloskey's Quick Classic Quilts. Of course if I EVER get this so called "Quick" quilt done, I will post picture. I also have a wallhanging that needs a little more hand quilting and a string quilt top that needs borders put on...... WHY do I keep starting more projects when all of these other ones are still sitting here unfinished????? It's a million dollar question that has no answer! :!: :!: :roll:

I'm working on EB's Grandmother's Flower Garden (the dimentional one)I've got 6 more blocks to do - the pansey, the morning glory and 4 roses. I tivo'd the episodes with the directions, and that made doing each one easier than just the directions in the book. So, I've got 12 done.
