I started a new quilt recently.
LaRosaraie by French General is the quilt and I have one block made. It's a beast and I need to make 29 more! I'm using La Rose Rouge fabrics from French General. I'm sewing along with friends Susan and Jen. It will be slow going for me for sure!
I've made some progress on
Rachel Howells by The Scarlet House. I'm using the called for Picture this Plus linen and the called for NPI Silks. It is a delight to stitch. I thought the border might be a lot to get through but it is surprisingly very enjoyable!
I'm also coming along on
Elizabeth Eyles by The Scarlett Letter. This is a SAL that started on 1/1/22 in honor of Laura's Big Birthday (her 60th). The SAL is on Instagram but you can find Laura's old blog
HERE. If you're on Instagram, her user id there is Maude and Mozart as well. This is also a fun stitch though the cherubs in the border are time consuming. Have you seen a cherub border anywhere else?!
My son is getting married! The big day is one month away tomorrow! We are all excited and I hope I don't sweat too much at the outside ceremony and reception. May will be a busy month for us.
That's all for now! May all your stitches be happy ones!

Great projects!
I want to teach myself how to quilt.
Any suggestions?
Congrats to your son!

Love your quilt block, Jackie! Both of your stitch projects are looking good. Best wishes to your son and his future Mrs.!
I'm glad to see you're still quilting! I sure hope you enjoy cutting and piecing all those blocks. If it isn't fun, I wouldn't be doing it! :-) It's lovely that you have two stitcheries going. They're always nice for picking up when you have a few moments here or there. How exciting to have a family wedding coming up so soon! No doubt the month of May will be busy for you, but in a very happy way. I hope it all comes together smoothly, and that the special day is perfect - cool and a little overcast.
Hi Jackie: Beautiful name for a quilt, I am looking forward to seeing it finished.
Great progress on Rachel and Elizabeth, such lovely designs.
Congratulation to the couple, I hope you post a photo of the Bride and Groom on their wedding day.
May is a busy month for weddings around here.
