What’s on the Design Wall – Small

Yes, I am fortunate to have two design walls. I found, while they were folded up and not usable, that I couldn’t really make quilts. I managed one, which seems paltry compared to last year’s general output. Again, I was surprised at what was on the small design wall. I knew about the yellow improv … Continue reading “What’s on the Design Wall – Small”

What’s on the Design Wall?

I was surprised to see projects pinned to my design walls when we put them back up over the weekend. I knew I had left projects on there, but the mists of time clouded over which ones they actually were. I took all the bits and bobs off the large design wall (pictured) and pressed … Continue reading “What’s on the Design Wall?”

30 Something on the Design Wall

There are two projects on the left. I have the leftover Strip blocks from my donation quilts in the very upper left hand … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday November 2019”

There are a couple of projects still on it that you might recognize, but progress also. The Lobster is still there. I really  need to do something with that piece … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday – May 2019”

FOTY 2017 Back on the Design Wall

I resorted the patches and have started to arrange FOTY 2017 on the design wall. It isn’t going well. Why? I don’t know. It just isn’t working. I did some math and am thinking I need to make the piece 18 rows by 18 columns to make it square, though that does not use all … Continue reading “FOTY 2017 Back on the Design Wall”
