Lost week

This week flew by in a flash. Actually more like a long nap. I have some health problems so this week involved a lot of time on the couch. Now I like to nap as well as anybody, but this was rediculous!
I did get a little work done on  couple of projects.

This is a mini I started a while ago. I started to hand quilt it, but the black on black was impossible to see. I picked out what little I got done. I am either going to cross hatch by machine or change to a dark grey and see if I can see that well enough and hand quilt as planned.
There is another mini with the same borders that I just need backing for. It is a cupcake.
Black batting is hard to find, so I am using flannel in these two.


The basket top is done. The flash really washes out the colors.If we ever see the sun again I'll take a photo. I hand quilted the first one, I am not sure how I will do this one.

 I mentioned the BOMs that I was doing last year. One of them was called Fiesta and  it was done thru the shop I work at part time. I got the top together.


Here it is. Very different from the baskets hu?
I love the colors. The spikes were paper pieced.
It was fun to work on. Glad that I had the whole year.
 This year the BOM is applique. The pattern is Hop To It  by Eydita Sitar (not sure if the spelling is correct). I think I might have to give it a try!

Have a good week. Hppy quilting.   Beth
