Sunday sewing

 

I was able to get alot of sewing done this weekend. I have to work every other weekend so I really look forward to having two days off in a row. The other weeks I just have a day off here and there but not together.
The above pic is 2 house blocks (stacked on top of each other) that are going to Victoria over at Bumble Beans. She is gathering non-wonky  house blocks (10.5") for a charity quilting project she is doing.


 

This is my row for the Round Robin that Barb is hosting. I've decided to do something in the line of a rainbow colored quilt. The blocks will be a free for all. I'm just asking that the rows have only white and one other color with no rows repeating the same color. Since purple is my favorite color I chose that for my row. I'm planning on bordering it all with black.


 

I was also able to work on February's Schnibble "Sunday Best". I'm still playing around with the layout. I don't think this one will win but at least I have the 16 squares done. 
I did accomplish a few other things too but no pictures.

I love the round Robin idea. Purple is my favorite color too. So I guess I will be using something else.
