this photo doesn't do justice to the volume of these pieces d5 sewed together for our "pinky stinky edna" quilt. but isn't it a lovely stack? it brings to mind the layers of a croissant.
last saturday afternoon she came to me and said, "mom, let's quilt!" i had house design projects (custom drawer inserts) and planning for an upcoming family event that i needed to be doing for deadlines, but i was burnt out and could not resist her siren call to the quilt room. so we had a girls night in together, both piecing away.
we both get a kick out of chain piecing "bunting." this was the first string she pulled off. later it stretched across the room and then some.
she worked away quite diligently on piecing the rows of four while i jumped around doing some yellow projects.
this is what i got done:
- hsts and a test block
- two "sunny yellow crossroads" pairs
- one leaders-and-enders "lemonade at sixes" block
Oh that is so wonderful to hear that you had such a great sew-in together!! What fun;)))

So lovely to spend time sewing together. I'm curious though, who picked the background music in the sewing room? LOL!
