Design Wall Monday

I got my birthday top (Noveau Riche) pieced.  The only change I made was to increase the final border size by 1.5".  Hopefully I'll get this quilted after I complete one that's already pin basted.

I had some edge pieces from making the larger Asian Influence that I made this mini quilt.  It's 17" square.

The Nine Patch Pineapple group is up and running.  We have started work on unit 1.  To read more about this and see other fabric choices, visit the NPP Blog.

These are the blocks I received from a swap.  It was a calendar blocks swap and each participant was assigned a different month.  I had January.  I took them off the design wall and put them away as I plan to used them in another project.

What are you working on?  Head over to Judy's site to add your blog or see what others have on their design wall.

June Finish and What I'm Working On

I finally got this tote bag for my little friend, Natalie who lives in Atlanta.  I've been trying to get one made for her since March.  She wanted the tote to have orange, purple and green colors on it.  She then went on to add pink, yellow, and I can't remember what else.  Since she'll be in town on Friday, I quickly made this one for her.  It is diffenetly bright.  I hope to have time to add crystals with her initials and some buttons as embellishments if I can get back to it before her arrival.

This photo is the makings of a swap with Pins and Needles.  Each participant signed up for a month and will make 12 blocks that feature something in that month.  Since I'm a snowman collector, I decided to take the month of January.  Last evening I got all the embroideries completed and made one test block.  Today I will continue cutting the pieces and hopefully get the blocks completed over the weekend.  I plan to mail them next week.
