A Quick Bit of Piecing

Between loads of laundry, I managed to piece this little triangle.
Who knew Y seams (inset) could be so fun?!
Happy Stitching,

3 Tris to Add


I planned to finish RS6 today but didn't have much time at the sewing machine. The applique on these 3 kept me pretty busy this afternoon.
I'm hoping to finish the right row this week.

Happy Stitching,

Pink Kittens & Sunbonnet Sue

RS4 Center Piece

-RS5 Geisha Girl-

Sunbonnet Sue gardening will be the center of RS4.
I'm hoping to post that and a few more this weekend.

RS5 came together quickly.
Directional prints are a little tricky on the side triangles.
To help keep myself on track, I'm adding an arrow to the draft that points up.
With each focus fabric piece I add, I double check that it's lined up
to prevent an afternoon with the seam ripper.

Happy Stitching,
Heather

St. Patrick's Day


"There are good ships, and there are wood ships, the ships that sail the sea.
But the best ships are friendships, and may they always be."

Happy St. Patrick's Day, Fabulous Readers.


Wishing You a Rainbow

For sunlight after showers—

Miles and miles of Irish smiles

For golden happy hours—

Shamrocks at your doorway

For luck and laughter too,

And a host of friends that never ends

Each day your whole life through!

1 Prepped, 1 Done

RS3 is prepped and ready to go for my next applique day.
It seemed like a good night for some quick piecing.
RS4 was a fun one!

Happy Stitching,
