Moving Right Along

The one good outcome from my back injury last weekend is that it gave me a reason to spend a lot of my week in the sewing room.  My back is much improved, but I'm still being cautious about tackling some of the bigger housework tasks.  

I made a lot of progress on the project for the Just Two Charm Pack blog hop.  But no pictures of that till July.  Block 7 for Diatom (Quilting Jetgirl) was finished. 



Block 12 came out on Friday, so I'm still behind. At least more than half the blocks are finished now.  

SAHRR is still in the project rotation. 



Two of the final spacer borders are attached, so just two left to pin and stitch.  My Guy also decided on the final border fabric.
 



This teal batik made the final cut.  It's been washed, but it's not pressed. I hope to get SAHRR to finished flimsy by the end of the week.  

That's what's up on my design wall this week.  Linking up with Design Wall Monday and Patchwork & Quilts.

    I'm so glad that your back is getting better. Your Diatom block is beautiful, and I like the border fabric chosen for the SAHRR.

    Block 7 for Diatom is beautiful! I like the border fabric you and your guy picked for your SAHRR, too. That will finish it off perfectly!

    That is a really nifty star block! SAHRR is coming along (have I said that before? LOL).

    Sounds like great progress all around. Hooray for being over halfway done with the Diatom blocks, and the batik is a great choice for the SAHRR.

    It looks fantastic! I'm sorry you hurt your back. I'm surprised sitting at the sewing machine doesn't make it worse.
