Whats up this weekend

Wondering what is going on in my sewing room this weekend? Well, I once again started work on getting some more plaid tumblers together. I have 12 rows done! I think I need about 20 (and yes the quilt is hanging sideways right now)!

Also cut some white on whites for Winter Wonderland and traced and basted 2 blocks so I could start work on them. Tomorrow I'm going to try and trace another. I hate the tracing!

I got a large tumbler die with my Go Cutter -- somehow I didn't expect it to be so big. I'm thinking I'll make an I Spy type quilt with it to take advantage of the size. This one looks great - I always love your quilts.

Winter wonderland is a beutiful quilt, got the pattern, but I don't know if I ever will make it. It is so big. But I have seen it reduced to the half and that is a more ok size for me.

tumbler looks great! I am looking forward to sewing my plaid tumbler together soon, still cutting for it
I will do it in long rows as well, in stages as you are!
doubt I will that many I can sew the whole quilt at once!

Love your tumblers...I hate tracing too...wish there was a way around that step but I guess we just have to do that so we can stitch.
