This week's prompts:

Watching -  some old Modern Family reruns. 



Favorite Space - is my quilt room.  Even though I cannot show what I've been working on.



Secret -  I found out my grandfather kept this secret from all of us.  He was half Japanese.  All so very fascinating.

SUNDAY SNAPS


Gold - Just some "oh-so-pretty" gold flowers

Found - I found out that three-year olds like to do yoga. (Archival photo)

Something Colorful - This big-stitch quilting project is something colorful.

Light - This could have been good for my prompt in motion; it could have been "Light In Motion"  or "Motion in Light".

FINISHED-ON-FRIDAY (Wk 38)


What a busy week this has been.  I had to actually take things off my plate in order to make room.  And, sewing has suffered.  Although I had high hopes, I did not make one stitch toward my Riley Blake Retro Travel Bag.  I did however, work on my Big-Stitch Quilting in the evening and when I found some time during meetings.  So, I got all the stitching around the flowers and have started quilting lines using the dots as a guide.  Perfect fabric for a first-time project. 


I did fit in a few gifts I need.

A couple of pillow cases and some small boxes.   Maybe some chocolate will sneak into those boxes.

Have a great weekend and

Quilt happy,

Marilyn

MAKE-IT-MONDAY (Wk 38)


I am hoping to get at least one of these UFOs I brought back from the Riley Blake's Fabric Fest done by Friday.  I also have a few other small things to get done for little gifts.  But, of course I cannot show you that yet.
 

The Retro Travel Bag is my day project.  The Big-Stitch Quilting is my evening project.

Have a good week and

Quilt happy,

Marilyn
