Flimsy Friday

It’s Flimsy Friday here, and I have a flimsy to show you. My week has been a little slow in the sewing room. I’ve been having trouble getting motivated. So yesterday I just made myself make progress on something.

I got to work on my Spring Paws, which I began working on back in May. You can read about it here. The fabric is a fat-eighth bundle of Dixie by Cluck Cluck Sew that came in a Sew Sampler Box from The Fat Quarter Shop (no affiliate). I didn’t have a pattern for this little quilt. It measures approximately 30″ x 30″.

Here’s another view, a little closer.

Now I need to find a backing for this quilt, and then decide how I want to quilt it. I think I have enough fabric left over to do a pieced binding, if I decide to use it.

So I count the work on Spring Paws as a little progress on a UFO this week. One step closer to being done, and the bright fabrics are fun to sew with during this season!

The Quilter’s Planner Sampler Sew Along

It has been a busier week for me outside of my quilt room, so that has slowed me down a bit. I did get the January block made for The Quilter’s Planner Sampler Qiult Sew Along.

Will I get all the blocks done?  I really haven’t even decided the colors of the quilt yet. These fabrics just came together, and I sewed up the block. Sometimes that’s how I roll! All of the fabrics are from my stash. The center fabric is an Amy Butler that I’ve had for a few years and have been using bit by bit. The rest are all just scraps, so I have no information on what fabric they are, with the exception of the top pink triangle, which is Kona Pink Flamingo.

Happy Friday! Have a great weekend!
