FNSI #6 Results

Well, I got some stuff done last night during FNSI but not all that I wanted. Hubby came home at least an hour earlier then I thought he would be. And the girls wanted to snuggle after supper for about an hour! That's right, did they not get the memo that last night was FNSI and I needed wanted to sew??

Here is what I did get done:

Finished the quilting on the side of my mom's quilt. I started the books but then realized that it was going to be too difficult to do the way I wanted, so need to think more on how to do it.

I had to stop and "fix" where I sewed the backing over.
This is the second...maybe third stop this happened. The
other ones you can barely tell or are at the edge....not this one.

It is a BIG quilt - at least big to me. Maybe a double size???
The bookcase has been quilted and the boarders.
Now how to do the books???

Cut and resewed (is that a word?) the inner circle of number six for Lily's QAYG. I then ironed it and number five. Well, number five needs to be RIPPED OUT AGAIN! This will be the third time that it has been ripped out. I thought that the third time would be the charm but guess not with this one.

Look at how flat that one is. I am almost ready to take
scissors to the other one...almost, but I will try again to
get the inner circle added. If it does not work....then
the quilt will be 4 blocks, lots of large sashing or
boarders and one pillow.

Sewed the strips together for A's quilt (Sew Lux QAL). I still need to cut these and then start sewing to the blocks.

This is actually a dark purple. I need to sub-cut it to add to the
other blocks as sashing.

So, all in all it was productive but just not quite as productive as I thought it would be. I will be working on mom's quilt this week. I have until Sunday to finish it. That is when I see her again.....if I want her to take my girls for a weekend, I better get that quilt done.
