Weekly Update - Feathers To And Fro Afghan & Batik Cascade

I got the first 2 rows sewn together on Batik Cascade (Batik Go-Round) by Karen Combs.


I'm still working on the last big motif on this half of the Feathers To and Fro afghan from Learn to Make Monk’s Cloth Afghans by Marilyn T. Magly.

Weekly Update - Feathers To And Fro Afghan & Batik Cascade

I've finished the first 2 rows of Batik Cascade (Batik Go-Round) by Karen Combs.



Speaking of Karen Combs, she was travelling recently and someone stole several of her quilts out of her car.  Please visit her blog, keep an eye out for her quilts, and spread the word. If we can get the whole internet looking for her quilts, they'll be found.


On a happier note, I only have one more motif to go on this half of the Feathers To and Fro afghan from Learn to Make Monk’s Cloth Afghans by Marilyn T. Magly. When I'm finished with this large motif I'll be able to turn it around and start the second half.

Weekly Update - Feathers To And Fro Afghan & New Project - Batik Cascade

I made a little more progress on the Feathers To and Fro afghan from Learn to Make Monk’s Cloth Afghans by Marilyn T. Magly.


My quilting has been calling me, so on Friday I started Batik Cascade by Karen Combs.  At least that's what she was calling it when it was published in the Oct./Nov. 2009 issue of Mark Lipinski's Quilter's Home.  It's now for sale on her website under the name Batik Go-Round.


I've already finished the 1st row and part of the 2nd. I've also got a bunch of patches cut and marked.


I'm keeping Feathers To And Fro out since I know there will be days -- like the last two -- when I just won't feel like messing with the iron.

Weekly Update - Feathers To And Fro Afghan

I'm nearly halfway done with the Feathers To and Fro afghan from Learn to Make Monk’s Cloth Afghans by Marilyn T. Magly. It's getting harder and harder to get the whole thing into the picture at a distance from which my camera is willing to focus on it.
