Back in the dark ages of 2018, actually possibly lighter days than these, our state did a row-by-row shop hop during which I collected some of the patterns/kits to be able to join in, but then didn't have time (or make time) to do them.
That has changed and I have begun shuffling through them, choosing this one as a starter:
...that truly came to life when I added the applique notes & clef sign.
I decided to maching applique the pieces and I'm learning as I go. 😄
When I finish this block, I'm off to do more of the blocks so I can turn it all into a wallhanging for my dining room wall on which I have an easy-to-change-up quilt hanger. I enjoy varying up what's hanging there. Or I might just make small blocks to put on a stand-up mini-quilt hanger to set on my piano. Decisions, decisions...
Here's the music that has been swirling through my brain and heart lately: (I wish I were tech-savvy enough to actually show the Youtube video here, but you can easily get to this beautiful song by Keith and Kristyn Getty.)
Since I have been a church musician in various capacities at various times, I'm eager to get this hanging in my house and to see what all the other bloggers are doing for this hop. I hope you've gotten to enjoy a lot of beautiful projects. If not yet, here's the list...

ReplyDeleteIt's always so great when a blog hop comes along to get us started on a project that has been on the backburner for awhile. You have a great start and this one looks like a great skill builder, too. Perfect for the hop. Thank you for the song and hopping along with us.

ReplyDeleteGreat piece, and great start on the row by row. Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYour right about it coming to life with the applique pieces on it. It's such a good feeling to get those rows out and stitch them. I've started to do that, but have barely made a dent in my stack. What was I thinking when I was collecting. LOL!!
