My New Temporary Design Wall

This is my new (temporary) design wall.

As my regular readers know, I have moved (temporarily) to my old dining room

 sewing space as my sewing room is occupied by one of my sons.

  I do not mind sewing in our living area, but apparently 

I became very spoiled by having had my own space where I was able to "spread out."   

So ... I seem to be extending my sewing space further by branching into the adjoining living room.  

I am now calling this quilt in the making
"Anything Goes With Gray"
in my head.

One of the things I liked most about my sewing room was that I was finally able to set up a temporary design wall and this was so useful that I had been making sewing room improvement plans to make a permanent design wall.

I now cannot sew without some kind of design wall.

So with the help of my hubby I made a new temporary one by putting a large piece of batting over our big entertainment wall bookcase in the living room.

Yes, there is a television behind these

  Friendship x and + Swap Blocks.

I had to play catch-up on these blocks, which I am swapping with my quilty bestie,

Dorian @ Ridge Top Quilts.

These are my February, March and April blocks.

I shall actually be ahead for once!

I really need my design wall for these blocks ~~~>

My Spring Frolic Quilt In Progress

Here are some of the other blocks.
I really have  a difficult time stopping myself when my
 "30 minutes a day of sewing for me time" is up
when I have these fabrics in my hands.
I have so many projects to catch up on that I have to keep to my self-imposed limit
so I can get everything accomplished.

I will get this spring quilt done.

And Spring Will Come ... soon, I am hoping. 

This has become my focused 

My 30/30 Sewing Challenge

and is a big item on my

My Quilty Bucket List

I have a new addition to my bucket list ~~~~>

This Triangle Quilt Along @ Sassy Quilter

A 60 Degree Triangle Quilt has been on my quilty bucket list for a long, long time
and this fun quiltalong was just the incentive to get it off my "To-Do" list
and onto my "WIP List."   A small step in the right direction.

Sew I have many happy projects to choose from
when I sit down in my happy sewing place.

... just keep sewing ...

What are you working on today?

I am always looking for more quilty inspiration.

My Quilty Muse Frolics

My Quilt Muse has spoken.

My Hannah fabrics made themselves at home in my quilty corner and found some pretty Posh friends.

Here are my final choice of fabrics that I am sewing into my 

Spring Frolic Quilt!

Pattern Available HERE

It is still a mystery pattern right now, but I have looked at the final installment this morning.

I like mystery quilts ... sometimes.

I also like planned quilts and to listen to my own quilty muse.

 My quilty muse said "look before you sew this time." 

So I listened and I am very happy I did.

I would have loved the quilt if I had sewed it just as it was kitted as a mystery.

But I am going to love it even more now for having looked before I sewed.

I am making this as a new bed quilt for me and have splurged on fabric and I went spelunking through my stash closet to find the right two coral tone-on-tone fabrics

that my quilty muse wants to see in this finished quilt.

Since this is a mystery I will not be posting pictures here on my blog until the whole pattern is released.  You can see pictures of the beautiful quilts in progress

 The Quilt & Needle March 2014 Facebook Album Here

Some of these quilts have the same kit fabrics as my quilt will have,

without the addition of the corals.

They are all looking gorgeous!

I love this pattern.

Thank you, Jess, for this  fun frolic through the fabrics!

Since this is a new queen size custom bed quilt for me,
it is my primary goal in this "sewing for me" project.
I have so many other projects and commitments that it will take me some time until I have it finished but I plan to work on this 30 minutes a day.
I hope to have the top pieced by the end of the month.

... just keep sewing ...

Think Spring!
