Busy Weekend

The eldest has a college scholarship competition this morning, so I’ll be brief.

I have the quilting and trimming done.  I think I broke 6 needles by moving the quilt too fast.  Ah.  It’s lovely done.  This afternoon I hope to add the binding and spend Thanksgiving week stitching it down.
My gray and black squares are slowly coming together.  I need to pull my bojagi back out now that the quilt is off the machine!

 I hope your Thanksgiving (if you celebrate) is as lovely as you dreamed and you get to enjoy whatever you need, company or quiet, chaos or rest.  We’ll have 12 kids under our roof for a few days, so I’ll have more chaos than quiet, but I do love to see family!

Your blue twikle stars are so pretty! Congrats on the finish. Hope you can sneak in some sanity stitching with so many kiddos around, but enjoy the time. It does go way to fast. Good luck to the eldest on the scholarshop competition.

Love everything about your finished quilt. Such peaceful colors and the block is lovely, especially the way it creates a secondary pattern.

August Block Count

 I thought I wrote this, but it seems to be lost somewhere or I never wrote it at all… August was a quiet block month, with only 42 16-patch...
