Talkin' Turkey Progress

I focused on Talkin' Turkey this week.  I got a lot of the various units done , four more blocks and the sashing for in between the rows.  Only 30 blocks to go now.


Yesterday I cleaned my sewing room and packed up the pieces. 


I have some obligation sewing to get done this week:  40 birds in the air blocks to get done for an exchange.  Frances Dowell, a quilting podcaster and children's book author, has written a new quilting novel for adults.  It comes out in September, and a bunch of her listeners are making Birds In the Air signature quilts to celebrate.  If you haven't discovered her podcast, The Off Kilter Quilt, give it a try!  She is very fun to listen to.  You can find the podcast on iTunes.

I also have a quilt to bind.  It is the first quilt I've made for a wall hanging, and I know just where I want it.  I hope it looks as good in that actual place as it does in my head.

Wow. Your talking turkey is looking amazing. You have the patience of a saint. Wherever you hang your wall hanging, it will look wonderful!

Looking good!
It looks like you keep your things well organised. Good on you for that, because I can tell you I struggle with it :)
