Spend another five days at my personal retreat.
Yes Annemiek, I did get snowed in again... lol
I don't really mind though.
I have "finally" finished up GS#1's rag quilt!! I just need to go to the laundromat and wash it.
I learned a lot making it! What to do, and what not to do...
Sometimes we just have to learn the hard way, and then the project gets kicked to the curb for a bit, until we are ready to deal with the "issues", and then finally complete it.
Am I right ladies?
I also got all of my BHM blocks done, AND all of my set-in triangles.
Then I needed a change for a bit, so I got this project out and
completed all it's 25-patch units, and got some of the rows sewn. I
posted this photo on Quiltville's Facebook Page, with the question,
"Should I off-set the blocks, or do as the pattern says?"
Well, the very big majority said to do off-set, so I stitch ripped the last row off, so I could do just that. Stay tuned.
Here is another photo of my hideaway sewing room. I have much to sort through and organize yet, as you can see. Hubby put shelves in both closets, and will put shelves in the middle there for me also. I plan to put my books, magazines, and patterns there. My cutting counter needs to find a space too yet.
It is not a big room. Much smaller than what I had at home, but I'm determined to make it work.
Happy stitching!

Love the BHM!! The colours really have that Italian feel, really really beautifull!
