The baby quilt is a BOM from last year, I won 2 of the blocks. The original block was 24″ square, so I added polka dot borders and cut a back from a fun stripe.
The birdie on the wreath was recovered from the trash. While trimming I poked a hole. Eek! It’s currently glued, but I plan to stitch a holly leaf over the hole. Hopefully that will keep it from growing.
Blocks from my Mystery Bag Quilt for charity.
A guild friend asked for 3 puppy faces to make comfort pillows for donating to the church where we meet. I finished the 2nd pillow I had planned.
It’s been a big Charity month and here’s the latest finish, a friend’s mystery bag quilt.
My Easter Rocker pillow, wondering if I should embroider eyes and whiskers on the face.
Next week:
- Quilt SAHRR
- Quilt baby quilt
- Piece charity quilt
- Squirrel
Plans for the SAHRR is all down to putting it on the frame and then just starting. There will definitely be feather wreaths in the setting squares.
The baby quilt will be ruler work, so that will develop as I get it loaded and stare at it.
I am working on snowballing 2 corners of the blocks I am making. It’s just 3 print rectangles with 2 opposite corners of white.
I am feeling a squirrel coming on. But I am trying to work through all these tops and get them done before making too many new things! I have 6 tops of various sizes waiting to be quilted. Now’s the time!

Looks like you had a very produtive week, Chris. So many beautiful eye candy.
It’s fun to make a variety of things during your sewing time! Thanks

I really love your posts – I get very sidetracked just looking at your great photos and I am exhausted from all you do – lol! 😀
Me too! LOL, but seriously I don’t fell like I ever accomplish all I could. Too much time wasted playing online games.

You certainly did have a good week! Love those puppy faces. And kudos for rescuing the birdie in the wreath. An embroidered holly leaf will certainly cover the “eek”!
Thanks Judy! Live and learn and don’t try to cut so close next time. LOL!

Hi, a very enjoyable post here with such an array of interesting projects. Bird and Bunny faces are so cute. Yes, perhaps that little blank bunny could do with eyes but cute enough the way it looks now. Happy Stitching from me.
Thanks Jocelyn! I am trying to find an embroidery file that might fit that bunny face!
Always so hard to stay with what we have on the table and that new idea beckoning. Once I went to a class (only class ever been to actually) and the experienced quilter showed one of the participants how to fix a mistake or hole with a bit of appliqué, was very impressed because… I wouldn’t think of it all by myself!
Oh, those puppy faces!! Chris, they are so darn cute. I am amazed at the amount of things you get finished/started each week. Dang girl, you rock. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Chickadee
And here I think what a slouch I am! Thanks
Love your progress!!!! Everything looks so good.
Thank you, it keeps me busy.
The baby charity quilt is pretty with those different dot fabrics! Love your bunny pillow for the rocker, too. It’s always fun to see what you come up with for those!
Thanks Diann! I never got around to a March pillow so I will add one next year. Just a few more to make to round out my year.
Doable list–the deciding what to quilt is always the hardest part! lol
Yes!! And from 1 minute to the next I change my mind. 😂
So many cute projects! I love your puppy face pillows. I’ve pulled projects out of the trash too and your leaf idea is the perfect way to salvage it. Squish looks like a lovey.
Thanks Marti! Squish is a lovey!!
Chris you continue to amaze me with all you do in a week. I love all of your projects and really enjoy seeing your progress each week. The puppy faces are too cute. I am in love with the Bow ties quilt. There’s just something about grey that gets my attention. Thank you for linking with To Do Tuesday. Hope you are having lots of creative fun this week.
Thank you Carol! I don’t really think I get all that much done. LOL! But I have fun doing it.
