Crafters- What are you making???

[UniPaints]

I am crocheting an afghan that is taking months, crafting ATC cards with Lineria blooms for my ATC swap group, have a painting in progress and just finished my rat proof feeder last weekend. My goal for 2013 is only two projects, 3 tops at a time.

What is the black/white one?

The black and white one is a long legged chicken.

Just finished this quilt top yesterday. It's 6 ft square and is made up of 1,600 1" hexagons that were put together using English paper piecing method and about 105,000 hand stitches. My fingers are so sore still. Now to plan how to finish this bugger.

iI still have the last quilt my great grandmother made when she was in her 90s...she hand stitched the whole thing.

That's a beautiful quilt! I've never paper pieced, but I did hand piece up until about 3 years ago when the BYC staff gifted me with a nice Brother computerized machine. Now, I machine piece and save my hands for the quilting part.

I'm making a Tennessee Waltz quilt right now for myself (I think it's for myself, but I still may sell it if I ever finish it, working around all my other smaller stuff). Here are some of the pieces, enough to show the secondary circular pattern coming out. I have probably a dozen blocks done out of the about 35 I need so far. Got to get back to that.




And, I'm doing a bed runner for a neighbor, commissioned to actually go on her mother's cedar chest that sits at the foot of her king size bed. It had to complement a comforter she has on there and have paisley in it, not much floral (quite a challenge, I found, with these rosy pink and seafoam green colors) I told her if she doesn't like it, she doesn't have to buy it, so you may see it up for sale on BYC, LOL.
