Sewing With Sharon

 

It's been awhile since I last shared the gorgeous creations coming off Sharon's sewing machine. We often tag-team our sewing. We make the same pattern at the same time - as in Lucy (Sharon's and mine) and our Double Irish Chains (Sharon's and mine), for example. And coming up in July, we each have planned to do yet another Double Irish Chain. Red and white. Yes, can't wait. *grin*

Because we have known each other for so long and so well, our quilting preferences often run in similar veins. We get on "kicks" pretty often, and the Kaffe Fassett "kick" is strong on us currently.

 Sharon is making her own version of Ocean Ripples, which I made earlier this year. Take a look at the deliciousness coming off her needle! She made the two halves (one is shown above) and sewed them together on Wednesday.

This looks yellowed, but the window was behind the quilt, so it has an "illuminated" look to it. 

She has now moved on to the smaller HSTs for the borders. They are made, so just the attaching to be done. To be reminded of the KF original, here's a pic from the book Quilts in Burano.

Here's my Ocean Ripples from back in  March, when I finished the flimsy.

We will be unable to sew together for the next couple of weeks as DH and I are going to be on vacation. I am sure we will be in touch with texts and social media, but actual in-person sewing time is on a 2-week hiatus.

Hope you are getting in some good quality sewing time! 

Happy Quilting, Friends!
