I haven't gotten much done today but I did manage to get some things organized so I can be more productive next week. One of the things I did manage to get done was one of my redwork blocks. That's our bucket list draw this month. I have a set of three blocks (Christmas themed) that I am working on. I will have to option of using all three as a table runner or individually. Here is the one that I finished today (still have to trim it).
The next block will be an angel. I managed to get it transferred to the fabric today so I can start to work on that also.
While I was going through stuff, I noticed I still had a couple of blocks that needed doing for the Civil War BOM that I was in. I haven't sewn them but I did pin them up on individual boards so I can work on them this week.
I'm not a fan of sashings so obviously the first layout that I'm auditioning is without sashings. Then I remembered I had some snowflake fused applique that I could use. It's sitting on my carpet right now waiting for me to make up my mind. At first I liked it but the more I look at it the snowflakes are too white I think. Not that I want "dirty" snowflakes either. I will have to think on another layout.
What is everybody else working on this week? Oh yeah, check out how my home made tortillas turned out. I'm putting up a picture on my other blog.

Another BOM that I discovered I didn't finish was this wool and cotton snowman BOM. I put it aside because I didn't like the pattern's sashings. Now that I've sewn a little more I've gotten a little more confidence is saying "if I don't like it I'll change it". Now to figure out to change it.

Yes I agree they are to white. They were the first thing I saw when I first looked at it. Takes away from your other blocks. And I love your other blocks. Love your Red Work also.
