Design wall and more bee blocks

Hello everyone!  I did a little rearranging in my sewing room, moved my old Singer sewing machine and computer desk and now have a design wall.  What a difference it makes to be able to sit at my sewing machine and view my blocks across the room.  I don't have to leave the blocks in a pile then place them on the floor every now and again in order to see how the quilt is coming along.  I know many quilters use batting on their walls but I bought a vinyl tablecloth and am using the flannel backing as my design wall.  Works just fine so far!

I also received two more blocks for my red and white "Goddess" quilt - thanks BeeBee!

Enjoy!

My Singer in its new home - tucked in against the wall.

Moved some of my shelves down to make room for the sewing machine...I still have to get my fabric organized, maybe next week sometime.


My new design wall - finally!


Two more blocks for my red and white quilt.

The work in progress.


The piece of selvage that inspired the name for the quilt.  We should all have goddess quilts I think.

  2. How great to have a design wall!

    I am still down on the floor laying out the blocks. At least I have my digital camera so I can remember what I saw!
