I took an unexpected quilting and blogging break, but it's been good and much needed. I finished my whirlygig quilt.
I bound it with a solid brown.
I backed it with a "vintage" sheet.(vintage = from Step-Grandma's house).
I really love how it turned out. I gave it to my brother and SIL. Matches their living room perfectly. I had the Arcadia Layer cake forever and my SIL loved it but she wouldn't take it from me when I offered it to her to have, so I made her this so she could enjoy the fabric.
I am also making progress on some more whirlygig's using Hunky Dory by Chez Moi for Moda. I really love this fabric. It's so girly.
I also have my snowball quilt in progress. I'm using Whimsy by Fig Tree for Moda. I love this! It's a slow go though. Everything seems to be lately. But that's okay.
Hope everyone is doing good! Talk to you soon!

I love how your whirlygig turned out! YAY!!! ohmy...how big are your snowballs??? Those little squares look itty-bitty! I have some of the make life fabric...haven't yet decided what to do with it. Looking forward to seeing your finished piece! Missed you.
OOhh the whirlygig quilt turned out soo darn cute!! I NEED to make one of these!! LOL!! Too many things on my list, and not enough time in the day to try them all! :D
Your whirlygig quilt turned out beautifully!!! I love all the colors and the brown binding really sets it off. The sheet looks like it was custom made for the quilt. Can't wait to see your next one when you finish it.

LOVE your Arcadia whirlygig quilt! I so wish I had stocked-up on that line while I had the chance.
Hi! You have a nice blog, and you seem to get a lot accomplished! I liked your profile/ history of your sewing.
