Shoo Fly Fun!

I have been working diligently on my Shoo Fly quilt.  I am just finishing up on the sashing.  I love these colors!  My problem is I have to decide if I will stitch in-the-ditch or do stippling for the actual quilting part.  Maybe I should practice my stippling . . .  You know, I think I may have made a shoo fly quilt before . . . perhaps a hideous pink quilt.  I will have to think about this some more and try a churn dash or something next time.

Three New Quilts in the Works!

I have been seriously neglecting my blog.  It has been a busy year!  I am getting back into paying more attention to my blog.  I have three quilts I am working on and another in my head.  I had some little pile of pre-cut layer- cake blocks, that I am using as the basis for this shoo fly quilt.  It is soooooo busy, I decided I need to put sashing between the blocks.  Here is a photo of how it looks on my friend's design wall right now.  I will add some big plaid sashing after I finish sewing those last four blocks together.

Oh, yes. Four plus five equal nine. I got four done,
so I have five left to sew together.
