a QOV top and Finished ( or not!) Friday!

 Ohhh I may be slowly getting back in action!! I had a morning to start looking at my sewing area - and the piles... the piles people - enough to make me want to start sewing someplace else haha!

but!! I got this top finished - I just had to sew the blocks into the strips, and apply the out borders - sounds easy right?  Well - It was - but we had 42 interruptions by unknow objects driving by  - the dogs had to bark at each unknown sounds..... ( okay -it was the sound of ghosts - but Daisy was sure they were out there)

We had an accidental skunking - and boy howdy was that a stink

and! we actually had to get some work done ( good work!)

but Lookie here:

A TOP!!!



And while I was sorting in those piles - I found the binding strips I meant to make a while ago - they are now bindings - ready for our QOV's - and that pile is a lot smaller....


a

I am sort of afraid to keep digging - but I must - I must get to the bottom of the piles... before I Start something new.... right?/  Isn't that the LAW or something like that 😉

We have a neighborhood skunk - once in awhile he is bad! Love that you found that finished quilt top, and the binding, too. Perfect for a quick finish!

I have "piles" too! I cleared the cutting/featherweight sewing area this week. Next up is the ironing surface. Little by little the piles are reduced, reorganized and surfaces become exposed! I like your newest flimsy! As for summer, our granddaughter is coming from England for a visit. She's four so her mama is also coming! We can't wait!

I’m not sure it’s a law but sometimes it’s for our sanity ;-)

When my husband would work the night shift, having the dog stare out the window and growl at ? used to really bug me! lol
The latest top is gorgeous! Nice use of the QOV block.

I love it! I wish I could get through my scraps!!! The newly framed cheater panel looks lovely, and how awesome to have to much binding ready to go. I think I may have to adopt that habit from you!

Another very pretty QOV top. You're describing MY sewing space - piles everywhere again. And a zillion ideas spinning in my head like always. LOL
