RSC - Last Teal/Turquoise

Back from retreat and feeling good. There were only 6 of us and it was good to see all of them, but especially the three from Springfield. I hadn't seen them since October in Kinderhook.

So what did I accomplish besides renewed friendship? My "secret" project is a completed top! I'll need to find a backing and start thinking about the quilting. Meanwhile, I can begin cutting and sewing binding. I did manage a sneak peek at some turquoise again!

I get the binding on this little mat named Maple Leaf. I pieced the top at last Kinderhook retreat. It was quilted here at home. Then at this retreat, the binding was sewn on and stitched down. I added a hanging sleeve because I think I might want to hang this little 15" x 15" cutie.

Of course I did a little RSC sewing while there as well. This is my scrappy border coming along for String-X Such beautiful color!

I had to make two because it will be going around a corner. It will join the red section in the pile for when all the border pieces have been readied.

One more thing: I signed up for a block-of-the-month program at Rosemary's. I finished the first 24" (Yowza! They're HUGE!) block and made a good start on the second one. I spy teal!

So that's my progress report for this week. It's month-end soon. Wonder what color Angela has up her sleeve for March?

Linking up with my fellow RSC quilt group over at SoScrappy. Thank you, Angela, for keeping us on track weekly!
