I did get to spend a lot of time sewing.
On Labor Day I went to a fabric Sale in someone's backyard with my friend Sherry. I was good and bought only 5 one yard cuts.
I got to work on the George +Ginger Janis Top using some jersey knit I picked up at Mood when I was there for G+G hitting the runway at New York Fashion Week.
Smaug wanted to help me sew.
I'm working hard on my Deltille Quilt (Pattern by Running Stitch Quilts). I have a 108" wide backing on the way from Minerva and I want to get it done by the time the backing arrives.
I took my Entropy Quilt (pattern by Squats and Running Stitches) out for photos. Only to realize that I forgot my camera and had to resort to using my phone.
I also took my finished Retrogradient Quilt (Pattern coming soon from Needle Down Chin Up). I'll share more photos of it soon in its own blog post.
Then I was going to take photos of my Janis Top, but the remote to my camera is missing. I haven't used it since May! After tearing up my sewing room looking for it, I ordered another on Amazon. Better photos and a blog post coming soon for this too.
I also got this cute tee in the mail from Ruthlessly Handmade.
I took off from work Friday. That morning I worked in the yard, dropped my phone and cracked the screen.. I'll get a new one in 14 days when I'm eligible for an upgrade. I picked up my mom's Quilt from the longarmer and it looks beautiful. Here's the back.
And a quilt swirl for the front.
On Friday I saw Sharon (Sweet Mama Life) and we had such a good time catching up on work. Kids, and sewing. I left her house with fabric! I told her I'm planning on making these cute Patchwork Pumpkins -pattern from Sew Hungry Hippie.
I ended the week almost done with my Deltille Quilt Blocks!
Hopefully the coming week has fewer mishaps. I'm already thinking I might need to plan to take a day off just to chill soon.
