My frantic sewing pace has definitely slowed down this week, with much less time spent in my sewing room. I really didn't realize how many appointments I had scheduled all in a 2 week cluster. And my new glasses might be ready for pick up today.
Saturday Sampler this month has several Dresden Plate blocks. Progress has been slow but moving forward. The purple block was sewn last week, and the pink one is from this week. It's much bigger than the purple one.
This teal/aqua Dresden will be the same size as the pink version. None of the background squares for the bigger ones have been cut yet, and I'm still not sure exactly how I want to applique them onto the background. I'm going to finish the Dresdens and then I'll worry about backgrounds and applique stitches.
There are some partial blocks left to make that are not even cut out yet. Maybe that will happen today.
Some weeks are like that--I am off to an appt today and will miss my time in the studio! Your Dresden plates are very pretty!
ReplyDeletevery pretty so far....
ReplyDeleteIt's okay to slack off! (And you don't slack much.)
ReplyDeletethe plates look great.
ReplyDeleteYou picked some fun colors for your Dresden Plate blocks. Hope you find more time to stitch this weekend.
