It is very sticky, so I'm sequestered in my sewing room with the AC on. I finished the first row which is part of the international Row by Row Experience. It's a kit from Quilting with Color and employs two techniques I'm not wild about - fusible applique and paper piecing. But it turned out quite cute so I shouldn't complain.
I'm thinking about quilting each row as I finish it so that I can quilt around the fusible applique. I'm not sure what I'll put between the rows, so I have set it aside until I figure that out. Now I'm working on Hen House Fabric's row, and it's more to my liking - a simple Log Cabin with embellishments (bird buttons). This and the next one, from Yankee Pride, are patterns only, so I can pick my own fabrics and am using scraps. I also have patterns from a couple of online shops and may add the fabric license plates I've collected through a swap here and there.
