This post tells more about the quilt design.
I don't have any must-quilt projects right now so I took the Janome, my primary machine, to the shop for an overdue cleaning. I regularly remove lint from the bobbin area and the feed dogs but I have a suspicion that there's gobs of lint down below I set up Sweetness, the Singer 301, and she's humming away.
Another torn-from-a-magazine pattern inspired me to cut into the Australian aboriginal prints I've acquired. 
The pattern has 6" finished blocks. Mine will be 8". I don't know if I'll add sashing or make a border like the pattern. Right now I'm just having fun selecting contrasting prints for each block.
As for the August OMG: I'll go easy on myself with "something yellow" for this month's RSC color.

ReplyDeleteA new month! I think I'll unearth my 301 (http://cbottsprojects.blogspot.com/2022/12/out-with-new-in-with-old.html) and get her humming too. Is Ellie keeping you company this week?
