The sashing strips for Frolic are the current leader and enders project. A few of those, along with a couple of the darker blue blocks have been added to the collection on the design wall.

I may start assembling the rows this week as work on the rest of the blocks continues. Just three more dark blue and five light blue blocks left, plus lots of sashing strips.
The first round of borders for Mosaic Mystery are done.

The next round will be a narrow dark purple. That should happen this week.
Twinkle Stars has been trimmed for binding and the fabrics selected. The plan is to make a rainbow binding that matches up with the rainbow border.
I'm wondering if the orange is too light. I may replace that fabric with something just a little bit darker. The label is mostly done, I just need the Scientist in Training to give me the message she wants to add since this quilt is going to one of her writing buddies.
So bits of progress on a few projects. Hopefully I'll be back to normal this week and can move things along a little quicker. Linking up the usual Monday show and tells over at LoveLaughQuilt's Monday Making and Small Quilts and Doll Quilts' Monday Design Wall.
I love rainbow bindings I think all of these will work for that quilt
ReplyDeleteYour Frolic colorway is wonderful. The Mosaic mystery looks restfully uncomplicated compared to both Frolic and Twinkle Stars. Have fun assembling, binding, and maybe FINISHING!
ReplyDeleteI love your binding fabrics. You might be right about the orange. Something a little more vibrant might set it off more, but it’s hard to say looking at a photograph. The colors aren’t always true. You always make good choices of colors, and so trust your instincts. Everything is looking gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI really like your Mosaic Mystery quilt top; the dark purple will frame it so nicely. I hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're feeling better and got a chance to sew thus weekend! It's always a good feeling to make progress on projects. I love that rainbow of fabrics in your last photo - they'll make a great binding for Twinkle Stars!
ReplyDeleteA rainbow binding sounds beautiful to me! As does the purple border around the Mosaic Mystery quilt! I hope you make lots of progress this week!
ReplyDeleteHoping additional progress is on the horizon!! Glad to hear you're feeling better. Now, to find some time to quilt!
ReplyDeleteFrolic is looking fantastic.
ReplyDeleteRainbow binding! Love the sound of that.
Rainbow binding - what fun! I agree that maybe a darker orange might stand out better from the yellow. Frolic is looking good!
ReplyDeleteThose projects are coming along beautifully-
ReplyDeleteand I love those fabrics all lined up in the last photo--
though there does look to be 2 yellows there and no orange!!
luv, di
That binding will be wonderful, so bright, a darker orange would be perfect.
ReplyDeleteStill loving that BH quilt of yours! So darn striking!
ReplyDeleteThat rainbow binding is going to be great! Hope you are back to normal by now and have some good sewing time this weekend.
ReplyDeleteGood progress. I am looking forward to seeing the rainbow binding. It sounds great, and I agree, I think a little darker orange in there should happen.
