This weekend's weather of sunny in the 50-60s, allowed me to work on 3 more windows.
I did this chore a few years back, all sanded and sealed. However they need re-doing.
My newest Amish piece is a combination of blues, pinks, violets, and purples. The hand-dyed fabrics really make it shimmer. I've enlarged it to twin size and by Sunday night reached the half way point. This is the kind of quilt where left over pieces of solid black fabric can be used. The varying shades add to the glow. I'm searching for stray fabric in baggies in an attempt to use up odd stuff.
Dolly wanted me to pass the word that Santa has delivered extra large chewies to the big box store. Over in the Christmas section. They're good for keeping wee munchkins entertained while sewing.
Until then, keep stitchin' . . .

Hi Dolly! Glad to see your 'mom' posting a pic of you.
Your new Amish piece is really great. I love the colors. Dolly looks quite focused with her new treat.
