Finish: This star quilt was the perfect project for a beautiful Spring day. Read more about it here.
In Progress: I've been working on other outreach projects because they are mindless sewing. Yesterday, I finished the blocks for this bricks quilt that a little boy will love.
I finally started my flag for Boston last night. I chose the anchor from the Rhode Island state flag that stands for Hope. I used a freezer paper stencil technique with fabric paint. I'll heat set the paint when it dries and hope it doesn't run if it is out in the rain.
I also pulled fabric for my block for Quilts for Boston. This project is using a tighter color palette. If the HOPE letters come out OK, I might enlarge them for this block.
Simmering: Two secret projects for two special people are due soon, but not started. I need to get going!
Mod Bento has been pin basted for weeks. Maybe I'll finally quilt it before next Wednesday.
On the back burner:
I ordered backing fabric for the Magenta quilt and my Three by Three top that has been waiting far to long to be quilted. (Yikes! That 9-patch swap was 6 years ago!)
It's time to link up, then get stitching!

I really love how that quilt came out and the colors are beautiful. I finally got the middle of my baby quilt done, and it is off, no matter how hard I tried to match the seams, lol. But, it still looks nice, so today the borders go on.

LOVE LOVE LOVE your anchor! What a great idea!
Gorgeous quilts, and so special to be taking part in the Boston project. My daughter lives a mile from all the Watertown action, these are scary times. Bless you.
