Totals 2013 - April

Another busy month has gone by and progress has been made on several UFO projects.  I completed two more of my quilts this month... Baltimore Album and Civil  War Snowball, and the Hope Academy Banner is done and currently hanging in the church.

I made progress on my Orca Bay (needing to cut fabric for 42 more hourglass blocks) and Florabunda quilts (all parts are cut and complete... now to stitch them all together!  I cut fabric for the remaining SIS blocks for my Easy Street pieced border and I was thrilled to locate another 3 yards of the purple fabric for my final border.

And, silly me... I started another new project! My monthly wednesday sewing group decided to make a Spring wall hanging together.  I've almost completed the background and will begin preparing the applique flowers this weekend.
