Welcome to a corner of my dining room table. As our house is on the market, I can't have a design wall right now, so this is temporary (until the next fit of decluttering seizes me).
We have a block for my version of Judy's Peaches and Dreams quilt. There are 30 total, and I think I have 7 done/needing to be ironed. I'm aiming to assemble the pieces of one each day.
Then there's the wool candle mat I won when Judy had a giveaway. I think I make the buttonhole stitch backwards from the directions, but I'm a lefty (and proud of it!) so that will have to do. The stitches are slowly improving, although my spacing and depth still needs serious work. I had a New Year's Goal of learning a new skill, and I guess this is it! I've done limited applique, but only with a blind stitch - nothing fancy. I should be a pro at buttonhole stitches and french knots by the time I'm done.
Finally, my blocks for the Assistant's pink quilt. I need 159 of these little blocks, and I am about 1/2 done. They are being pieced alternately with my blue blocks.
Check out the other design walls at Judy's place!

No such thing as a dull design wall! You have your work cut out for you with those little blocks! Have fun! :)
All design walls are exciting! Even if they are design floors or tables or couches :)
I'm so glad to see someone else making Peaches and Dreams. I LOVE that quilt!
great post! love your projects piecing 2 projects at once is a great time saver and thread saver if your doing it leader/ender style.
right, left, it doesn't make any difference as long as all the stitches go the same way! And if you make a block a day, won't be long before you have enough for a whole quilt!
