One last block and on to the finish line

I finished the last block for the new sampler design on Monday and got most of the quilt assembled yesterday. I just need to finish the last border.

I need to finish the two free pieced letter signs I made recently. I want to mount Conrad on a canvas, and quilt the Cut UP mini quilt. I have to make my own canvas frame for Conrad. They have the pieces at Hobby Lobby, but they were out of one of the sizes I need the last time I was there. I need to find out if they got it in.

Not sure what I will back the Cut UP mini with, so I need to go digging through my fabric to see if I have something that will work.

My daughter is coming over after work to steady the ladder so I can scrape and prime the front porch peak, so I'm going to finish priming the rest of what I scraped before she comes. I was going to go out this morning and do it, but then I decided why get all dirty and paint speckled twice in one day? Might as well wait until later. I think it is going to be another beautiful day. We are having some un-August like weather in the low 80s again this week. Love it, but my tomatoes don't. I might have to install grow lights out there just to get a few tomatoes by the time it freezes.

  1. That's a pretty block, the last one for your sampler. You have plans, plans, plans. Good luck getting it all done as quickly as you'd like. Take it easy on that ladder!
