Under the Needle: June

Sheesh! How in tarnation can it already be the first week of July?! Seems like every time I turn around, I'm gearing up for another Under the Needle post. I've gotten pretty good at sneaking into my sewing room and pressing or piecing or cutting or pulling something for one project or another when I get the chance.

Before I dive into my post, I wanted to drop a note for one of my readers, Violet - I wanted to reply to your very kind comment on my last post, but I have no way to contact you. If you'll drop me an email or leave me your e-mail address, I'll get back to you. :)

This month I made 150 flying geese for a quilt for our boy:

I pieced this quilt using a jelly roll I bought a few years ago:

And I made 40 pinwheels for another quilt using charm squares of Bluebirds and Roses that I have:

We went to the mountains and spent Father's Day with my FIL. DH shod his Dad's horses and they rode through mountains:

I visited with my MIL and added some stitches to my EPP project.

This quilt would get done a lot faster if I lived here because I want to spend hours on their deck, soaking in the cool mountain air. I would start every morning out here:

                           

This is the perfect binding spot:

And my finish this month is this little Spring Splash Paisley Quilt:

                                  

And a second bonus finish is this Monkey Business Quilt:

And that's a wrap for June. 😊
