Design Wall Monday - August 11

 On Saturday the final row pattern for Saturday Sampler was shared.  There will be 2 identical narrow rows, and then we can assemble the flimsy.  Show and Tell will be in October at the Saturday Sampler session.  


This month's row design involves lots of flying geese.  The pieces are all cut and ready to sew this week.  This will be my top priority. 


Second priority this week is getting the 2 narrow borders onto the Whales 3-yard quilt.  The blocks are all sewn into rows, so the borders will bring this to the flimsy stage.


In between these 2 main projects there will be more Leader/Ender stitching.  I've been sewing these blocks (4-Patch Fun) in red/white/blue for a future Quilt of Valor, but decided to dig into the scrap bins and add some in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge colors too.  4 aqua ones for this month are done.  One purple, and 4 each of yellow and pink were kitted up on the design board.  One of the yellow and 1 pink are now sewn.

I'm not planning for this to be a very productive sewing week as it's going to be kind of busy.  Monday one of the grandkids will be here.  Tuesday I'm taking a load of things to my daughter's house in Sioux Falls for her rummage sale.  Wednesday I plan to do some shop hopping with a guild friend.  And either Thursday or Friday the plan is to get together with some friends for an afternoon of cards.

Looks like you've got plenty to keep you busy once you do make it to your sewing room. You've got enough prepped to drop in sew for a bit either before or after your errands this week.

You do have a busy week ahead, but I am sure you can sneak in a few sewing minutes here and there:)
