We have had devastating bush fires in several states. Chookyblue has put out a call for quilts. I'm finishing stitching the binding on this little quilt to send.
I did finish my Trip Around the world top. You will have to imagine it has borders as the lack of light made photographing it too difficult.
I also added the centre to my French Mosaic. For the first time I used the glue basting method and it will be the last time. It may be slightly faster for preparation but any time saved is definitely lost when the time comes for removing the papers. I will go back to my tried and true thread basting.
Pop on over to Judy's to see what others have been working on this week.

I love your Mosaic project. So pretty.
This is really beautiful. I have not seen this setting for hexagons before. When I sew hexagons, I don't sew through the paper. It is a real time saver.
What a pretty mosaic. I have a love affair with hexies and this is a great setting idea.
Your Mosaic project is just gorgeous! I'm just getting started making hexies and I'm loving them. Thanks for your inspiration.
I have been watching the weather report for Australia...a bit scary. I have tried the glue basting before also and didn't like it at the end either!
I was so glad to hear your honest opinion on the glue basting. I have been considering using a glue stick but was worried about getting the papers out later. I'll just stick to my current method. Thanks!
thanks so much for getting a quilt together for me for the fire victims......very much appreciated.......
