I am slowly making progress on Bramble Blooms #1 and Bramble Blooms #2. First up BB #1, I have decided on my final border, I just need to make 100+ more HSTs. I am linking up with Judy at Small Quilts and Doll quilts for Design Wall Monday HERE.
BB #2 I have decided on the applique border. I took it off the design wall to prep the applique.
I have made progress on my hexie quilt too
This is the pattern, Flower Garden by Edyta Sitar.

I also made an I Spy quilt for my 3 year old granddaughter's birthday. I backed it with pink minky.
We have at least 8" of snow now, and more is expected. I need to get out with the snowblower and clear the driveways. I ordered these heated gloves to use this winter. Last year my hands were freezing. The little boxes in the photo are batteries, there is a wire in the gloves to plug them in to and they heat the gloves. Looking forward to trying them out.
The kittens are 6 1/2 months old now. I had a really hard time getting photos of them!

| This is Kitty Kitty Black. This poor cat has had about 50 names, we could settle on any of them, so I told my husband I am just going to all her Kitty, which turned into Kitty Kitty Black. |
I will be working on hexies today so I am linking up with Kathy for Slow Stitching Sunday, HERE and with Cynthia at Quilting is more fun than Housework HERE . Happy Quilting, Rebecca

Love your babies!
ReplyDeleteI made that hexie quilt - in fact I thought I won the book it is in from you and some hexies for a give away - maybe it was from someone else - I have lost track. I never did do the applique are you planning on doing the applique?
ReplyDeleteLove your Bramble projects, especially #2. The checkered border with the square-in-a-square corner is so smart looking. I can see that another 4-patch wouldn't have worked well. Great solution there. Your hexi project is coming along so beautiful. Wow! Congrats on the finish of the I Spy quilt. It looks great and I'm sure she will have fun with that one. Your babies are so lovely. Looks like Miss Kitty is a rebel who doesn't want to be named. Pickles is absolutely gorgeous but I love black cats. My hubby has a heated vest. I didn't know they now sell gloves. I have to find him a pair. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteLove that Bramble project. Great finish on the I Spy quilt!
ReplyDeleteThe Bramble projects are so fun! Love the kitties. Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteAdorable little kitties! Your hexie project is going to be stunning.
ReplyDeleteBoth Bramble projects look great and I like how you're expanding BBI. The applique will look so nice on #2. Applique always make things look extra special
ReplyDeleteThat's a new one for me, battery heated gloves! But then, we dont get snow on the ground where we live, only o the mountain ranges. Pretty kittens, they look quite big, what breed are they?
