It's been a while again. I have been very busy and it won't be slowing down until the end of the year. I have several craft shows scheduled from now until a couple weeks before Christmas so a lot of my time gets used up preparing for those.
This week I noticed that my grandson keeps wearing the same mask that I made him several months ago and when I asked him about it, it said he had lost a few. So I decided I better make him a few more. While I was at it, I made some other ones for DH, myself (although I don't really need more) and friends. I noticed some plaids in the closet and thought that would be good for men.

I also got Lori's quilt-a-long instructions for this week. So far, I am keeping up with it. I'm not sure how long it will continue. Here's what I have so far.
I hope it's not too scrappy! It's hard to know what arrangement to do when you don't know what it is going to look like when it's finished.
Now, I will be working on a quilt that my granddaughter helped me with when we visited in Florida. She said she wants it, so I will be sending it to her for her birthday. I'm getting ready to put the borders on and will post it soon.
Happy Fall!!
The masks are great! I love the plaid - I might have to think about adding a plaid one to my hoard (I haven't lost any, but now have some for all the holidays!)... And I know exactly what you mean about a mystery quilt. I'm sure it will turn out well, though.
ReplyDeleteNice looking masks. I believe I have used both of those patterns, too, or very similar ones.
ReplyDeleteYour SAL blocks look good. I need to get step 4 done.
Those masks look great, and I'm thinking they are still necessary today, or will be again soon! I agree it is truly hard to know what to do with scrap blocks like those. You will probably spend a lot of time re-arranging them on your design wall before you make a final decision on placement. Whatever, it will probably turn out to be a pretty and interesting quilt! Have fun with the blocks! ---"Love"
ReplyDeleteYour quiltalong blocks are perfect!
ReplyDeleteI too have to make more masks. Where did you get the pattern for the men's mask? I haven't tried that pattern yet and they look comfy. Love your blocks for Lori's sew-along. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteLove your scrappy quilt blocks, the more scraps the better!
