Design Wall Monday


I love this simple sashing for this quilt. It was cut from the fat quarter fabrics left from the stars. The original pattern (scroll down to the second picture to see the pattern) called for a single frame around each block so when they were joined together there was a double frame effect and I thought it was too busy for the fabrics in this kit.

Updates from the past week are here on what I have been up to. Tomorrow will have pictures of the progress I have made on the Farmer's Wife blocks for Tiny Tuesday's. Any suggestions on how to do the handles for the basket blocks? I tried a bias tube and you will see the disaster tomorrow....

Happy Halloween all!!! I am going to the gym and not passing out candy. We usually do pass out candy but it doesn't work out for me this year. Besides, last year most of the trick or treater's were over 18!
I won't give to temptation of eating candy this year.

Love it just as you have done it. Great job Vicky. No passing out of candy here either. We do not get trick or treaters in our woods. I did buy a couple of small bags of little candy bars when the grands visited. And I did eat my share so not more will be coming in the house.
