Another Monday..... And my Design Wall has the 'almost' finished Indigo Monochromatic topper.
When I started sewing on this topper I had this setting in mind and in the process I thought this would be just fine for my table.  Add a bit of quilting and done is good!

But then.... It's rather plain....don't you think?


So, of course, I changed my plans and did some math and plotted and trimmed and as luck would have it my math worked and ..... I ended up with this ----->

Then I got to feeling puny and just didn't have the gumption to even sew on those last 4 little border pieces.

This morning I woke with a sore throat, ear ache, headache and now I feel like it's moving down to my chest.  Good think I have a Dr. appointment tomorrow for my 6 month recheck.  Looks like I'll be needing some meds before this is all over.

Head on over to Judy's Design Wall Monday and see what others are doing.
Thanks for stopping by....

It's Monday.
I have a new quilting room and a new project on my design wall.
Even though I'm way behind on the challenges I really do want to continue trying to make something for each month of  Judy's Monochromatic Challenge.    

So here is my "Indigo" project for June.  This is a 15" block and I'm making 4 blocks for a table topper.  I really didn't think I'd be able to find this color in my stash but as I was shifting piles around I found the solid and then surprise, surprise the little flower fabric was sticking out.  It's some of my stash that's just plain older than dirt....but does work occasionally.
The pattern was featured on Craftsy and comes from Quilters Cache called Milky Way.
I can't post this to the June Monochromatic board since it is closed but I'll be adding it here on my page...and I can at least add it to Judy's Design Wall Monday.
Go by her place and see what some of the other quilters are working on.

Thanks for catching that for me Eden.  Thankfully most of these pieces on the wall hadn't been actually sewn together when I took the picture.  I must confess that when I started sewing that one piece turned into two more before I finally got the whole block set the way it is supposed to be.
<-----Here is the right block.  LOL
