First Weeks of April in the Sewing Room

My usual sewing plan is to work on one project at a time.
This month I'm juggling 3 projects.


The squares above are part of the game night quilt.
The game begins at the bunny's house below.
I have finished the top and pieced a back from two yards of extra wide backing.
For some reason I can't get the photos of the completed top to upload to the blog.
I'm working on pin basting and quilting it this week.


The birds for my flora and fauna mini quilt are ready.
I embroidered the bird names with pearl cotton in different colors.


Still in progress is Oopsie Daisy.
I'm adding more blocks in between other sewing.


Then there was a little detour over the week end.
The Memphis Symphony Chorus presented two concerts of Haydn's Creation.
We had a guest conductor, Dr. Rebecca Lord.
She brought her six year old daughter to some of our rehearsals.


Since I work with preschoolers in choir at GUMC her little girl stole my heart.
I thought Clara might like a couple of pocket kittens to remember her trip to Memphis.

We made some wonderful music together.
I hope they had a great visit to our city.

Happy Sewing!
