All 20 are cut and tacked, ready to raw-edge applique. Hopefully sometime next week I can start working on the borders. There are a couple in this series I didn't get photos of. I can't believe how many times I have changed my mind on how I want to do these. I think I will be as surprised as everyone else when I finally get done. I am considering adding beads and/or buttons after I quilt the top. So far this top is entirely out of scraps. I did use a sheet for my background fabric but it was one that cut into to finish a different quilt.
Our A/C is out (new one on Monday?) so I spent most of the day at the missions building. I cleaned, and sorted fabrics and wish I had taken a before photo. Pat on the back, I am bring home 5 empty laundry baskets. Several ladies are meeting with me on Tuesday to go through more fabric. Hope I get to send a bunch home with them.
