July seems to be a slow sewing month, even though my intentions have been good. This week we spent Mon-Fri at my in-laws' lake house and I'd brought along lots of hand sewing projects.
Juli ser ut til å bli en måned med lite sying, selv om jeg har hatt veldig gode intensjoner. Denne uka var vi på hytta til svigers fra mandag til fredag og jeg hadde med masse håndsømsprosjekter.
And what did I sew? ONE seam. Yupp, here it is in all its glory:
Jeg har store forventninger til at det ferdige produktet skal være supersøtt og skal dele hva det er om ca. en uke (jeg har en frist på denne, så den MÅ være ferdig til neste helg).
This weekend, I finally got around to sewing the second Mystery BOM from Fat Quarter Shop. Such pretty fabric! And I can hardly believe how nicely the points met (I say, as I pat myself on the back).
Denne helgen fikk jeg endelig sydd den andre Mystery BOM fra Fat Quarter Shop. Så fint stoff! Og så flink jeg var til å få fine spisser på stjernen i midten (sier jeg og klapper meg selv på skulderen).
Have you seen such perfection? (You probably have... I'm not the only one capable of nice seams.)
Har du sett noe så perfekt? (Det har du sikkert... Jeg er ikke den eneste som kan sy pent.)
As I did last month, I once again made a second, smaller version of the block.
Akkurat som jeg gjorde forrige måned, lagde jeg også en mindre versjon av blokken.
OK, so what didn't I get accomplished this week? My Dear Jane blocks. So I am 2 blocks behind. Better get on that! Some of them take a LONG time to sew.
Så hva fikk jeg ikke sydd denne uka? Mine Dear Jane blokker. Så jeg er 2 blokker på etterskudd. Må nok komme igang med det! Noen av de tar LANG tid å sy.
I am linking up today with BOM's Away! at What a Hoot. Lynn (whose blog it is) is a fellow Janiac and sews such perfectly pieced blocks and quilts it almost makes me embarrased to share my stuff online, not to mention linking up to her blog. Seriously! How does she do it?
Wow!! That last star is amazing! That's a lot of work, and it's all matched up so nicely. I really love that you're making a smaller version of your mystery BOM blocks. And trust me - the points on my blocks are often enough very *not* perfect. ;D Thanks for the compliment, though! It was very sweet.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blocks I love how you are drafting a smaller block for each larger one. The points look great!! I am a sucker for the vintage red aqua look myself.
ReplyDeleteI really likehow you are making a smaller version of the BOM!

Du syr så mye fint! Det er første gang jeg er på bloggen din, men kommer igjen;)
ReplyDeleteAw, mini FQS BOM! What a brilliant idea! There's always so much fabric leftover, why not! Do you just halve the measurements?
