Working on stuff...


This past weekend was a fun one with the kids at home for at least part of it!  I still managed some sewing including hemming some new nurse pants for daughter and making a "commissioned" stethoscope bag for... nurse daughter's special someone's soon to be nurse sister.  Does that make sense?  Giggle.  That is for you, Grant!

This is the finished stethoscope bag, finishing at 6" by 15".  She likes butterflies, so butterflies she gets.



I also started and finished the Wonky Wonky Little Star table runner.  More on that later but let me just say that it may have something to do with our quilt guild.   I just love stars and embedding the wonky stars like this just makes me happy!  I have a tutorial that I did up a long time ago when I made a quilt with nested wonky stars.  And here is the finished quilt...

I also got started on a my swap package for the Modern Scrappy Bits Swap round 4?  I think it is round 4... maybe 5!  And I finished my Marcelle Medallion quilt!!!! Wahoo!  So many things to talk about and so much progress!

Linking up with the Needle and Thread Network and Lee at Freshly Pieced for Work in Progress Wednesday.  What are you working on?

    I've never heard of a stethoscope bag, but it makes perfect sense! When I was nursing (when dinosaurs roamed the earth), my stethoscope was always around my neck. D'you have a pattern? I have a couple of nurse friends who could use one and alas, I'm not good at "garments" w/o a pattern...
