I have begun making 6" square little
woven blocks....
Each block will be one colorway....
and will be backed
with a very lightweight fabric
with simple running stitches to hold it
all together...
I took an online class with
Jude Hill years ago
and made a bed sized quilt using
this method --
[albeit with bigger squares....].
I also saw "K3N's Cloth Tales"
recent Youtube video
where she made a block like this
for her Week 39 prompt
in her fabric Journal...
AND....
also my little basket
holds
these little cuties:
I have some leftover
Kaffee Fassett
Charm squares and
I am making little
puffy reversible squares,
{"Little Puffers"}
They are simply whipped stitched
together --
back to back--
with leftover batting scraps
inside...
Then I sew a few holding
stitches on them...
As you can see above using
that red perle cotton thread...
I like to have a variety of hand
projects to switch back
and forth as I watch tv....
:)))))

AND....
I received this beautiful book today
in the mail
from Tom as part of my
Anniversary present:
I can't wait to read it all.....
I also await the 2nd part of this gift
to come which is:
A tin of DMC Mouline Special
embroidery flosses ....
He really knows what I like
💓💃💖
*********************
I have decided to make my "Willy Nilly"
flimsy into a Christmas tablecloth;
flannel lined and paired with
backing fabrics from my
old Christmas stash...
I am hoping to deplete that stash a lot....
I may use my machine tying at
block intersections to
tie it all together...
we shall see....

So, this is part of my fabric
ongoing WIPS
right now...
I hope you are enjoying this
Autumnal weather
