I've been blogging about the progress on En Provence, but haven't said too much about the other projects which are in the works. Bejeweled is the "priority" project at the moment. It's one of the 4 graduation quilts, so it has a May due date.

| Bejeweled, From the book "All About Strips" by Susan Guzman |
A few more columns have been stitched together and some of the sashing strips have been added. So this project is moving along. I'm hoping to have this one to the finished flimsy stage by the end of the month.
Blooms and Butterflies has also been progressing.

Sorry for the slightly crocked photo. I had to lay Blooms over Bejeweled which is taking up most of the big design wall. It was hard to get it on the wall straight with the other blocks behind it. At any rate, the pieced butterfly blocks borders are all attached. This one just needs one more narrow border of the polka dot and then the final border added. Depending upon how much time I have after Christmas, this quilt might just make it to finished flimsy stage by the end of the month.

ReplyDeleteYou are making great progress on both quilts. I am loving the jewel tones of the first quilt.
ReplyDeleteBejeweled is really shaping up to be a pretty quilt. I've had a hard time visualizing it up until now. Very pretty, and great choice of colors. You know I love the Blooms and Butterflies. Very cute, and I love that butterfly border.
ReplyDeleteBoth are very beautiful quilts. I love the arrangement in the first one, it's very striking.
ReplyDeleteBoth are just wonderful - your little bits of time and scheduling are making these come to life.
