This is looking down on my sewing area. Blue and White is the Lutheran World Relief quilt July #2, I need to tie with the white and bind it. LWR Aug #1 has been started, it is a mixed bag of squares. As you can see I have a lot of different projects in all various stages, I bore easily!! C

Here is something I have worked on this summer. It is called Little Garden House in Summer. You use fusible web applique and machine button hole stitching. The quilt is now pinned and needs machine quilting, then you embellish with buttons and an added flag and kite string and bows. If and when I finish it I will post a picture. I bought the kit from shabbyfabrics.com and also purchased the Autumn kit, Spring kit and Winter pattern (no kit available) when I saw how nice the summer one turned out-from a kit.
