Mini Monday - SAHRR22 - Round 1

Welcome to (Not so) Mini Monday... a little bit early!!  I shared the center of my Stay At Home Round Robin (SAHRR) last week.  It's Anja @ Anja Quilts taking the reins on Round One.

What did she call for, Joyful???

Curves.

I can do that!

Just have to figure out how...

Scraps and a previously unused ruler:


The side border was attached after a flip corner had been added:


First one, then the other heart top was cut and appliqued:


Those two pieces were sewn together and the remainder of the top border was added.  This is where I'm stopping this week:



Why, Joyful???

Simple really.  Pick from the following list of reasons:

1. It's Project QUILTING season and I don't have much energy left for the Stay at Home Round Robin.

2. I really enjoyed doing something unexpected last year by making something that wasn't exactly like everyone else's project.

3. I realized that I would (probably) miss the Linky Party deadline if I took the time to figure out how to make this symmetrical.

4. My family is starting to grumble that it's time for dinner (and I've been too busy sewing to notice.)

Until next time...
Sew aROUND!!!

  3. Very clever! Makes a really nice accent there in the corner. Now what to do for the diamonds? Hmmm...

  9. Great solution for your curves. I think the boys need to cook for Mom for a week and give you a break to sew!
