Yippee! Omicron Cabin, a UFO that has languished for several months, is now a quilt, albeit a small 36" x 36" one. My Heart of Vermont guild is having a 36" square challenge this year, due in April, so I am all set. No fabric was purchased for this quilt, although I did have to buy a little batting. I used two colors of beige polyester thread to quilt it, a light beige in the bobbin and a slightly darker one on top. You probably can't see the quilting, but I made rectangles and squares all over. It feels good to finish something.
Today I'm planning to finish the crazy quilt square I started in my Saturday sewing group yesterday. It has part of a hanky in the middle and is surrounded by various pink and beige scraps. Next month we will work on embroidery and embellishments. Can't wait!
it seems for two years all through the pandemic we quilt and quilt and quilt - the fabric stores must have stayed in business!
