Sunday Hand Stitching - Nursery Rhymes and Alien Invaders



The blocks for row 2 of the Ruby McKim Mother Goose Quiltie. are finished  While enjoying my morning coffee I finished up Little Miss Muffet.  Martha at Q is for Quilter  releases a new block each Sunday.  There are 20 blocks total and I am caught up with all 8 that have been released.  

These will go into a baby quilt and then into a hope chest for the next generation of babies. 



Either today or later this week I'll border the blocks and add them to row 1. 


Meanwhile those aliens in the Attic Windows quilt have been sending me some signals that I need to get to work on some binding.  This will probably be a project for later in the day.  I need to wait for my grandson to go home today so he doesn't see it before Christmas.

Now there is an interesting juxtaposition of crafts. Old and new. Very pretty.

Your quilt is looking adorable! It's fun to see how they look in the original size, and I love them in redwork.

P.S. I just noticed that you corrected the amount of legs on the spider -- I love that!
