EPP Day

I worked on my Grandmother's Garden Wall Hanging yesterday and today.  I now have half of it sewn together.  I like how it is turning out.  Once I have all the EPP part together I am going to applique it onto a piece of white solid.  The pattern I have suggests prairie points for a border, but I am not sure about that.  I will have to see how I feel as it gets closer to Christmas and I have to give it as a gift.



I also finished basting my first Lucy Boston Patchwork of the Cross block.  Recognize the colorway.  I am fixated on black and yellow.  I am adding grey to the mix based on my inspiration fabric of French Dress by Laura Berringer.



I am trying to get motivated to make my first real purse.  I have made zipper bags and drawstring bags but not a purse.  Anything to get away from pushing a needle through fabric.  Ha.  I have a lot of that in my future.  I am only getting nine blocks from my bee mates.  The one I completed makes 10.  I would like to make a queen-sized quilt.  Am I crazy or what.
