After we got home, I headed to the sewing room and finally made some good progress on last week's To Do list and March's One Monthly Goal. I've got the binding sewn to the front of Twinkle Stars and have stitched around three corners.
I've got two days to finish the hand stitching. That should be doable, but I'll probably take it down to the wire with the last stitches happening on Tuesday.
I've started stitching the Frolic blocks and sashing together.

I'm happy with how it's coming together. I still need to finish piecing 5 of the light blue blocks, but there's enough done to start getting the completed bits and pieces sewn into rows. The blocks were starting to fall off the design wall, so I just took most of them down but for the ones being sewn together.
The second border has been added to the Mosaic Mystery.

I just need to add a final dark purple border to have a finished flimsy. Hopefully I'll be able to finish that next weekend.
It was a good weekend with a lot of progress. Hopefully this week will be as good. Linking up with the normal Monday linky parties of Monday Making and Design Wall Monday.
Wow, you had a very productive weekend! Your Mosaic Mystery and Frolic both look great, and I can't wait to see the Twinkle Stars quilt all finished. I need to start sewing my Frolic blocks together too.
ReplyDeleteTwinkle Stars binding is perfect!
ReplyDeleteLove the sunshine in your binding!!! I know that feeling when the work stretches to fill all the available time. The Frolic is looking yummy and I am sure you will be able to finish Mosaic Flimsy. Stay safe.
ReplyDeleteOooh your Mosaic quilt is looking absolutely gorgeous! I'm also impressed that you're starting to put your Frolic quilt together!
ReplyDeleteYou’ve got a lot of near-finishes. That must feel good. I’m excited to see Twinkle Stars.
ReplyDeleteYou had a very productive weekend. I hope you enjoy the last bits of hand sewing on Twinkle Stars!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks great! We still have to go and completely move out BioGirl's apartment. We are hoping to do that in the coming weeks, but who knows. If these states keep tightening the movements of the citizens we may not be able to get her stuff before June!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to getting a glimpse of the completed quilt, Kate!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty pile of binding corners you've got there! I love a scrappy binding!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see twinkle, you tease!!
ReplyDeleteYou have lots of loveliness happening as always.
Lots of great progress after your trip back to campus with your daughter - hope the week ahead is a good one for you!
ReplyDeleteEverything is looking so good. You are doing terrific. Glad you got the time with SIT and kept her company for the long ride. Wishing you a good week!
ReplyDeleteI am loving how your mosaic mystery is looking! That dark purple is just perfect for your quilt. I hope you have a really good week Kate and make lots more progress!
