Je suis au grand repos, je suis allé à hôpital pour une très grosse opération. Je suis au grand repos, j'avais préparé avant de partir des hexagones que je fais à la main. Dans le livre The Civil War Sewing circle par Kathleen Tracy. Page page 55 Hexagones flowers Doll Quilt.Je fait le tout à la main. Un pour moi et l'autre pour un cadeau à une amie que je me suis faait sur mon blog.
Bonne fin de semaine.

Celebrating my birthday (but I'd honestly rather be quilting!) Your baskets are beautiful!

Love your baskets. I am madly finishing borders to ease the quilt guilt of a new project on the horizon.

I love making baskets, they are my favorite block. However, this weekend I am making doll clothes...maybe a doll quilt, too. I can sit outside in the afternoons and do some hand sewinq, enjoy the last of summer.

I've got multiple projects to work on this weekend but my current leader-ender project is little 4" baskets. Not sure of the name of the basket (wish I knew) but they go together super quick when they are already "kitted." Unfortunately, I started this comment before my iron bit the dust in a smoky stink. My weekend sewing is over :(
