Flying to a Finish

The scrub jay is really or hence existence finished. I'm expecting I'll accept the overstep finished past times the terminate of the day. Also , I've chosen a mention for it. If you've e'er fed jays , hence yous know they are gluttons for peanuts. With that inwards withdraw heed , I'm calling this quilt "Working for Peanuts." So here's what I did yesterday.

First , I finished off the correct leg.

Then , a picayune smidge on the breast.

And hence , it was simply a affair of filling inwards the background pieces.

And sewing them all together.

All that's left is to sew together the horizontal edge-to-edge seams...there are iv of those. Then I'll foursquare it upwards too add together a border to 2 sides. The border volition either acquire on the overstep correct or else on the bottom left. It seems a picayune heavier on the bottom left to me , too hence I'm learning toward the overstep right. Either agency , I tin cutting the pieces too hence encounter which agency I similar best earlier I sew together it on.

The entirely other thing I did yesterday was to fix the adjacent stitchery for the Bag Ladies stitch-along. There's something terribly incorrect alongside Mildred's oral fissure , if yous inquire me. I mean value at that spot needs to live on a line of piece of occupation added hence that she has 2 lips. I'm going to experiment alongside that a picayune bit. Either way...there she is , ready for stitching.

I'm doing the handbag ladies inwards fellowship , but if you're stitching along , delight stitch whichever handbag lady yous like. We're non much into rules hither at the Three Cats Ranch.

This morn I walked alongside Sue , too hence I needed to brand a concluding trip to the grocery store. It's going to live on a heavy cooking weekend. We're expecting guests Lord's Day evening...good quondam friends from high school...and hence I'll live on contributing some dishes to our fourth of July celebration on the E banking concern of the Willamette River on Tuesday. There's zip left on today's agenda but sewing , too that's where I'm headed next. I'm seriously hoping to present yous a finished quilt overstep inwards tomorrow's post.

Oh , but wait...I most forgot...remember the Mommy & Me quilt for the newest granddaughter of a friend?

Well...she has arrived. Here's a film of day-old Aylasaid Mae alongside her quilt:

Welcome to the Blue Planet , picayune one.
