BOMs Away Monday - Harmony and Temperature Birds

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)


Oh, boy!  Don't you love it when you get to a point in a BOM where you're assembling components into large portions of the quilt?!

Lots of good work on Harmony this weekend. I got very close to finishing the Month 7 Sonata work.

Put the diamonds together:



And got a good portion of the assembly with half of the set-ins sewn:



I'm saving the pressing of the set-ins until I have all 8 in place, to avoid distortion on the bias edges. 

I would have finished the entire star, but I decided going to a movie - Actually going to the theater for a new release! (Black Widow) - was too good to pass up. And then we Zoomed with Devon & Cory for an hour or so, which was really nice. They've had fun getting a nursery all put together for our first grandbaby. Exciting times.  :)

Yesterday I hit the bird bricks for Heather & Pat's temperature quilt that I'm hoping to use for an anniversary present in December. I got 1/4 of the way through fusing down the bird bodies on those. 

These are clipped by rows, and it's funny that we only see a few of the blues. There are several lavenders, purples, teals, and greens in there, too, but the leading bricks for each row (Dec 16th - March something) are all only from the blue spectrum.



Haven't started stitching any yet. It'll likely be my Saturday project for the next couple of months. The left birds mark the lows of each day here in Monument for the first year of their marriage, and the right birds marks the lows of each day in Aurora. They lived an hour apart for the first two years of her med school days, so this quilt speaks of their newlywed story.

Have you worked on any BOM type projects recently? We'd love to see your progress!

  6. HOW TO GET YOUR EX LOVER BACK & HOW I GOT MY EX LOVER BACK.
    MY TRUE LIFE STORY HOW I GOT MY EX LOVER BACK.
    I want to thank Dr Omokpo for saving my marriage. My husband treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my husband has changed towards me. Then she told me to contact: dromokpo@gmail.com that he will help me bring my husband back to being a good man. Then I gave him a try. after 3 days of casting the spell my husband came back home and I forgive him and today we are living in joy and happiness If you are going through any relationship, health problems or broken marriage situation and you want your Ex lover, Ex boyfriend, Ex girlfriend or Divorced husband or wife you can reach him via: dromokpo@gmail.com
