Ready for Red and Spinners

My week didn't go as plan at all. First, we had another 6 inches of snow that was NOT planned. 


DH got the stomach flu on Tuesday and passed it on to me on Friday. Gotta love a generous guy like that, haha. I wasn't as sick as he was but it's still not pleasant. I didn't go to work Friday as prevention for my coworkers. I still feel woozy today. 


Regardless, I managed to sew this week and get this one together. 


Yesssss! Spinners is a top! Whoohoo. I got all the stained pieces out and sewed it all together. See this post to read about the misadventure. Can you believe it was way back in 2022? It's about time it gets finish. You can see in the background that the snow didn't stay very long. 

And I also did this: 
Yep! I took Elvis apart. Oh no! Poor Elvis. 
I don't like this poly-pretend-I'm-batting thing to the point that I HAD to remove it. Our annual Artisanat's exposition is coming at the end of the month and I would like to show it off. And I want it to look nice! It will get a lot of attention this weekend. 😉

On to the Red scraps, very little got done. 

3 April Fool blocks


Because I have all those bags of scraps to go through and I found some more reds. 

I love that one in the top right but not sure what to do with it. There was way more of the yellow star one. It has already been cut by the time I decided to take this picture.

My leader-ender is not progressing much. 
Yep, one of them is different. I still "bloope" every now and again. Lol. My main leader-ender lately is Rail Fence. 

These are for the 9-Patch quilt but they are very boring to photograph so I don't bother. 

I'm not done going through the Walmart bag from last post, but I got all these whites/neutrals out of it. These neutrals were the reason I bought the bag. 

I will be making more triangles for the Stained Glass Quilt. 

This is ... I don't know what this is but there's a lot it. The big piece of the left is folded 4 times. It's a rough cotton, not quite as thick as canvas but close. The white flowers are painted on like some bad whites I get now and then. The needle has much trouble going through these kinds of prints and gets dull in no time. Disappointed. Out it went. 

I believe that's it for now. I'll catch you again next weekend. 
Take care everyone.
