April's NewFO's and finishes!

It doesn't look like I did much in April, but, I did.  Instead of making lots of blocks, I hand quilted a quilt.  That takes lots of time.  I finished the hand quilting of this quilt.

I'm in the process of stitching the binding down on this quilt.  It will be a 'finish' soon.  I'm also stitching the binding on another quilt.  Both of these have to be done by the end of this weekend.  Here is the pillowcase I made to go with the other quilt that is almost done.

I also finished the blocks for my little guilds 'box' exchange.  This month was Marilyn's box.  I made 2 sets of 5 blocks for her.

I also got a few blocks for my Harry Potter 'The Project of Doom' made, earlier this month. I'm making 2 of each of these blocks. 

Week #10
 Jennifer, over at Sewhooked, is asking for blocks from this quilt, to be made with a white background, that will be turned into a fundraising charity quilt for Project Linus.  You can find out more about it on her blog, here.  I made 2 different blocks for her.

  3. You did get a lot done! The cats are so cute and those owls are great. I have made one foundation pieced owl but I did it by hand, just cutting the pieces.

  11. I think you got a lot done! Some of the HP blocks are pretty time-consuming.
