Got that baby quilt all completed!!! I don't even know where I got this but it was with Kaffe material that was made for Christmas at least 4 years before Covid and I picked it up in a sale section, that I do remember. I didn't try it for years because the instructions was one page, and not very clear at all. Truthfully, I looked at the picture and figured it out. All the material including the backing was $48 American years ago, and look how big it is. It's for a friend who announced that she was pregnant. Her baby shower is in October and it's been so long since I've been to one that I thought I would go with this and a couple of books from Dr. Seuss. It's so cute.
I even remember a couple of the books that are pictured here. The picture below is a better one, you can see it clearer and what books are listed. And of course there's the book "The Cat in the Hat". I remember my mom reading these books to us and later us reading them ourselves.
I even had time to do last weeks challenge, a store front, but I did a bar front from London England. It's up on the wall and giving us both memories, which are good. The problem is I'm starting to run out of places to hang pictures... lol
Then I did something really bad..... I've been collecting the Mystery Up on the Rooftop Fat Quarter Shop Exclusive, it's cute as the devil but you'll have to go there and see if for yourself, because I haven't even started this one. But after seeing how to put the blocks together, I WANT IT!
It's been a really hot couple of days here in BC, and this place gets up to 32 degrees (89 on the gage today). Last night it didn't even cool down and then heated up again. We have a loft, with 28 ft. ceilings so it's impossible to cool down with an air conditioner, and truthfully who would of thought it 7 years ago when we bought this place that BC would get so hot. But tomorrow it's suppose to cool down so I've been prepping....
I've cut out 3 Summer Block Party patterns (they were get them for a week and then after that pay). Well it's been more than a week, and I've been seeing them on Facebook, they're soooooo cute that I just had to start mine. So I have 3 of them cut out, not on my list of things to do, but what the heck... So my table is a mess with the cuttings, but I should have those 3 sewn today and I'll show them. They're a great way of getting rid of your scraps.
Speaking of scraps, that medallion quilt I made all out of scraps, guess who's loving it!!! It's on our bed now, but someone loves to cuddle in it.
When the time is right I'm going to hook up to the finished section of the UFO challenge. But I still have about 3 more things to do, so off I go.
One of them is the quilt of LA (where my husband is at right now) before he comes back tomorrow. Wish me luck to get it done!!
