Weekend Sewing :)

I'm running a little behind on posting my sewing accomplishments from the weekend, but as they say, "better late than never" :)

So here we go. First, I was able to get my February Basket Case Quilter's block done.


I haven't done much embroidery work for awhile, and I must admit I was a little rusty, but I will also admit that I very much enjoyed it. As a matter of fact I think I will be doing more embroidery work in the very near future.


I was able to get my Quilting the Psalms blocks caught up for February. When I first started these blocks, I just wasn't sure about the bright colors. Brights just haven't been my first choice in the past, but some of the bright colors are growing on me :) I really like the way the black makes the bright colors POP.




And I found my Dear Jane blocks again *grin* They were put on the back burner for quite some time, while I worked on the 8 Quilts for the grandkids for Christmas last year. Anyway, I was able to get 6 done over the past weekend. Looking forward to more this week. I have to admit I missed Jane, and I'm glad to have her back out. Oh...I have named my Baby Jane, She will be known as "Recollections With Jane". I have noticed that when I work on these blocks, that I think a lot... about the Civil War Era, Jane Stickler's life, as well as my grandmothers, mother, and my past... so I felt "recollections" fit.

Pretty basket, and the black really makes the brights pop! Great choice...
