Binge Sewing!

I have been home a little less than a week now, all by myself...hubbie will come home sometime this week...and have been doing nothing but hanging out in my sewing room.
That's right...no cooking, no cleaning and no laundry!
I do shower and get dressed each day, but usually not until late in the morning. 

Needless to say, I have gotten a few things done.

'Autumn Pinwheels'

by Primitive Gatherings
I worked 2 days at TOWQS and just could not help but buy a NEW project.

Lots of stitching to do now on the wool vines and leaves!

Thank you, Lisa, for the inspiration temptation.

Pieced the center of 'Idaho Lily' for the Kim Diehl Simple Whatnots Club.
Next, prep the applique and make the 76 half square triangles that are 1" finished.

I made two blocks for a new Mystery Sampler quilt with a spring theme.
Here is a sneak peak:

There is one downside to binge sewing...you just might have an OOPS!

I spotted some "leftover" strips sitting on the ironing board from the first little KD quilt and thought...why not make a small quilt out the them.
As I was cutting into the 6th strip, I noted that they were all nicely cut into 1 7/8" wide strips.
OOPS, they were the strips for the scrappy binding.
Oh well, I had some other scraps to replace them with and now I have this cute 12" x 12" quilt to start my one day, small quilt collage.

Hope you are having fun times in your sewing room, but without the OOPS.

Seeing Stars!

This week has involved making a ton of flying geese!

Either for star points on sawtooth stars...

Star Spangled Banner,

a sew along pattern for a patriotic door banner coming soon to TOWQS blog.

AND more sawtooth stars....

for a Dr. Seuss themed baby quilt.

Then there are those blocks for my red and green quilt...yes, I did get at least one made for this month. Three out of four goals achieved!  No complaints. 

No flying geese involved in these stars!

The final phase of my Mystery quilt.

I hope the ladies like it.
