Pieces In The Garden blocks so far
My goals for last week:
❌1. Wedding quilt - Nothing done
✅2. RBD block - Done and posted here on Instagram
✅3. Pieces in the Garden Bachelor blocks - 8 done and 4 left to make for April - see photo above
I was able to sell my Janome and table last week! I took some good advice from Wendy and posted it on Facebook Marketplace, adding it to several local Facebook groups, and a lady contacted me on Friday. Imagine my surprise when she mentioned my hometown and a mutual acquaintance, so we had a fun conversation while she was testing the machine. Although it is a big relief to have Janice Janome sold, I might have kept her around if I had a bigger sewing space!
Indian Corn has been waiting to be finished for months!
I've got some goals in mind for this coming week:
1. Get busy on the Wedding Quilt
2. Do some squirrel sewing
3. Finish quilting Indian Corn (See above - this is a quilt I wanted to have finished for Thanksgiving last year and ran out of gold thread before I finished quilting it!)
4. Finish Pieces In The Garden blocks and do a post

Happy Tuesday , Linda. Such pretty projects that you have going on. Yellow and blue always look so lovely together and Indian Corn is fantastic. Squirrel sewing sounds like lots of fun. Enjoy your week .
ReplyDeleteI went to the IG link to look at the Riley Blake#13 block of course. Great job, I really liked the pattern of this block, looks good in so many different fabrics.
ReplyDeleteThose yellow and blue blocks are so beautiful together, Linda. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYour Pieces from the Past blocks are really pretty, Linda! Glad you got Janice sold, too. Sounds like Facebook Marketplace worked well for that! I've never tried doing that either. Happy Tuesday - thanks for hosting us!
ReplyDeleteI think your Bachelor Blocks are wonderful. So many pretty blues and yellows. I struggled with mine. They are so little! Maybe my new glasses with help! :). A squirrel project?? How exciting!
ReplyDeleteglad you were able to sell your sewing machine frees up space you need for other things
ReplyDeleteSo glad Janice has a new home, and you have more space! I might release the squirrels this week, just for fun, and to keep my mind off other junk.
ReplyDeleteThe Bachelor blocks are looking good! Space always seems to be an issue, right? So many goodies we need, but never enough room. :'(
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI like your Pieces in the Garden...so pretty. Have a great day!
Hi Linda! Big congrats on selling your Janome. I've never used FB Marketplace but I know oodles of friends who have. I can add you to list of using it successfully! I think you are ahead of the game with Indian Corn. You have plenty of time until you want to display and use it this year! And the wedding quilt NEEDS your attention - you've carrying that for weeks now. Thanks so much for the linky party today. I hardly did anything last week and feel even less like it this week, but your weekly to-do party does help me get something - anything done! {{Hugs}} a bunch for you. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteHow nice to have sold it to someone you have known before. It's looks so nice - too bad you didn't have room for it. I always like to see what you're working on.
ReplyDeleteWe'd love to have one extra room in our house, and if we did I'd claim it - lol!
DeleteLinda you had a super productive week! Wow! Just love those garden blocks. It's always nice when we find a home for one of our trusty sewing machines. I wish you luck on finishing your Corn quilt. I can only say you are way ahead of me (LOL!) I just finished a 2009 quilt and 2017 quilt this year. The only current one I have is my Sunshine quilt (where I bought the kit in 2009 but assembled in 2020 & 2022). thank you again for hosting!
ReplyDeleteHaha, the Indian Corn quilt stares up at me every time I go in my closet. I love it so much! I really doubt I'll be able to do much on it this week. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteWow you had a great week, Linda. I love your garden blocks. It's great you were able to sell your machine and to someone you enjoyed speaking with while the testing was done! I'm sure you'll enjoy your free space. Have fun as you work towards your goals this week!
ReplyDeleteYour Pieces in the Garden blocks are all little beauties, Linda.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on selling your machine! The blocks look great--always love yellow and blue combo, too!
