Mid week check-in

Well, there has been more progress . . . 


The Quilt of Valor blocks are all assembled into a flimsy.  I'm really happy with how these blocks look.  There is no big hurry about getting this one quilted yet, as our group is in good shape with finished quilts for now. 


The Hemingway bags are very quick to make, with the hardest thing about it - getting that zipper pull onto both ends of that zipper.  The zipper is actually made by separating and only using 1 side, so the pull needs to go back on those ends after it's attached to the bag.  It either goes smoothly right away (big bag) or requires lots of aligning, tugging and cussing (little bag).  I finally got that small one going and finished that bag too.  The bigger of the 2 will hold an iPad.  The small ones are perfect for ear buds or cords.


Another doll quilt is now quilted and the binding is ready to attach.  I also quilted that little Easter table runner, so while in a quilting mood this seemed like a good one to do at the same time.  That means there are now 3 small projects with binding to hand stitch.

I have some of that Australian print -- I like the way you placed it on the Hemingway bag. QOV is turning out nicely.
