Cute

Shelley you hen quilt is adorable!

On the use of the longarm, yes if you stop for to long you loose it. If you always have a quilt loaded you can take small chunks of time and get so much done. There have been times where I just set a clock and was amazed at the progress.

We just got back from a quick 4 days in New Mexico. I took my 3D hexi quilt and finished the applique in the truck. Time to get my next handwork project prepped.

Awwwww... Your Hen quilt is darling!

I don't generally decorate for the seasons, but decided I wanted a fall wreath for my back door--and do a bit of stash busting.  This took an awful lot of 2.5 inch strips but I don't even notice anything missing in my stash.  

That's a handsome wreath, Lynne.  Too bad it didn't reduce your stash.

Guess you will have to make some more. 

Thank you, but that will be it.  I got pretty tired of tying knots.

Yeah, it looks like there are dozens and dozens and dozens and dozens of pieces of fabric in that wreath. The final product is very handsome, though.

What a beautiful autumn wreath!  Looks like a fluffy bouquet of gorgeous leaves.

I did one of those in Christmas colours, but this one is so perfect for the season!

Being many years since I made mine, I've forgotten how long the strips are that are tied onto the base.  Thinking maybe they were 6", and wonder if that's correct.  I know how tiresome the process is, but yours is especially pretty.

What a cool project to use scraps. If you do not notice a reduction in the scrap bin means you have a big  bin. I am guilty as well......I have 3 large bins and recently participated in Joy's scrapbuster mystery.....same story, scrap bins still overflowing.
