BOMs Away - Reflections & Rabbits

 


Welcome to the Link-up for BOMs Away Mondays!

Where we share what we're doing on a BOM type project
so they don't stall out in UFO-land!
(Linky at the bottom)


Wow! My work energy is SIGNIFICANTLY improved as compared to 3 weeks ago, when I last worked on the month 5 sewing for my Water Reflections BOM.  (At least for sit-down work. I still get ridiculously winded when I do anything standing, let alone involving stairs. . . )

First I made the remaining patches, 

Which, added to the ones made last time around, grew up to become these sets of blocks,

And with top/bottom rows of random squares, became the quilt center:


I had no idea I'd be able to finish that much work, so I'm a super happy BOM camper right now.

Also, during the work week I snuck in time to do more on the leaping rabbits from last weekend, because all those little pieces that took forever to sort out and organize were out on my table - not to be trusted as safe, with Navarre around! (Plus, I wanted that mess cleared away.)


So now, two leaping rabbits are completely stitched, and the other two are all glued on, ready for stitching when that BOM's turn comes up again. (The photo above shows correct colors. These guys below didn't stay true with night-time lighting.)



My work-week priority project is not a Christmas quilt, but the colors in these blocks sure are perfect for December attention, aren't they? 


They make me happy.  They'll grow up this week to become the Jinny Beyer "Kashmir" quilt top. I really need to start blogging all my work again, instead of just the weekend BOM times. . . 


~*~*~*~

Have you been able to do any BOM type work lately? We'd love to see it.  :)

Kate over at Katie Mae Quilts has joined me in hosting this meet-up, 
and linking up from either end puts you on the party at both sides.

    So glad to know you are feeling better. I was worried about you. You give me hope that eventually my broken arm will heal and I can get back to sewing as well!

    Your Reflections on the Water BOM looks amazing -- and are those rabbits for the Sarah Fiehlke quilt that I am thinking of? I LOVE that quilt and would love to make one someday!!

    Water Reflections blocks are just beautiful! Especially those three snapped in front of that marvelous roaring fire. Ahh. I can feel the lovely warmth. I'm glad your energy has returned, slightly, and that you're feeling incrementally better.
