1. Almost finished my moustachioed block:
FYI, Applique is a BITCH. Now I just need to embroider in "LHC" on the bottom right of the white. You see, this is for the Can't grow a 'Mo, sew a 'Mo group that Danielle of DJ Coolbear has put together - BUT this is not my mustache creativity! My good buddy of forever - GT - runs a company called Love Handle Clothing (LHC) and the sell some awesome stuff. Every year GT also does Movember, which is one of the places Danielle will be sending proceeds of the raffling of these gorgeous mustache quilts. Here is GT (left) and his entrepreneurial partner J at one of their booths:
So.... THREE CHEERS FOR STACHE!
2. Finally finished the face for my Sudoku quilt... I had been wanting to lengthen it for a while because it was itty bitty living space (imagine this in the Genie's voice). So I purchased some loverly Trees in Orange from the Central Park line and had some fabric from my LQS and sashed on some length!
Beautimus, no? Now its time to do the quilting! Stay tune for a possible WIP...
3. Nubees blocks. I knew I wanted to do something stripey/strippy (?) for this month, but I also loved having a bit of a diagonal involved. So M helped me tool around with some fabrics and we came up with this - which I have to say - I am enjoying it more and more. Here are the practice runs - mine is first, M's is second:
Now just to pick out all the fun colors for all my new hive mates - hopefully soon to be crafty friends!
Cheers peeps!
