The busy has been in general sewing activity. The not-so-busy has been in general quilting activity.
WIP
Butterick 5317 in Heirloom
I took it into my head to make this dress back in, oh, January. It would figure that I only start making it once it gets too cold to wear it!
I like the design, I like the way it looks on me, and it goes beautifully with the Joel Dewberry Heirloom range in voile!
However, I will be travelling to the US in August-September, specifically San Francisco, Estes Park in Colorado, Raleigh in North Carolina, and New York City, and so I am hoping for sunny skies, warm weather, and the opportunity to wear this in temperatures above 20C!
Santorini Sun And Sky
I have otherwise been binding one of my quilt for the show - the Santorini Sun And Sky.
I still have to make the sleeve for the hanging rod. And one for the Eternity Quilt. This will be a new experience... *meeps*
things to be done
And there's the Blogger's Quilt Festival on this week and next, until the 31st May! So many pretty quilts! I'm going to enter a couple (eternity, and the new york cat mat) and we'll see how we go!
Short and sweet!
