February quilts finally finished.

 March has been a crazy month.  My husband had surgery so that meant pre-surgical appointments including blood tests and iron infusions along with 2 units of blood transfusion.  I feel like I have been living at the hospital.  I expected one or two days of being in the hospital post surgery - WRONG - 7 days and I lost all my time I had organized for binding quilts that I quilted in February.

OH WELL... best laid plans.... 

In the last few days I finally got the bindings done.  First is a quilt using a variety of blues with a pattern I call Carolyn's blocks because I never been able to find the original source of the cutting fat quarters.  

Running Doe quilt along  (Villa Rosa) called Lanterns.  I use strips from my batik bins.

Two quilts  made from blocks that were a Heartstrings challenge to use strips.  I made enough blocks for two quilt tops.  Now bound and ready for donation.

Second quilt using the strips from my scrap strip bins.  I managed to condense 2 bins into one.

This was a sew-a-long with GE Designs.  It used fat quarters and I pulled out a strange assortment of fabrics, and colours.  The pattern is Jolee. 

My project for the Quilts of Valour Sew Day in early February was to make a quilt using the 2025 pattern for the alternating blocks called Zig Zag. 

I am currently working on using blocks from my Rainbow scrap challenge that were all made last year. This L block is put together, waiting for quilting.
 

Material Girls has a challenge this month to make a 16 patch jelly roll quilt.  These blocks need some trimming and I literally threw them on the wall to see if I liked this setting.  The pattern has them all lined up, nice and even.  That means a LOT of seam matching and this way, only corners need to match? 

I have made an effort to tame the disaster of my sewing space being a "dumping" while I was at the hospital, all day, every day.  And, my list for the last week of the month is organized.  I have a few tops to get quilted that I did not take pictures of.  

One day at a time and eventually projects get finished.
