I didn’t do a post last Wednesday because all sewing on my part was paused. I only worked on jigsaw puzzles. It was a great break, but I need now to get back to work.
It was only 2 days ago that I finally took the project box out of my van with the quilt top in it. Now I’m working on getting a backing pieced together.
Of course I ran out of green strips before finishing the Fields of Green rug. I sewed more strips on, and ran out again. I just sewed more green strips on. Also in the picture is the selvage rug. I worked on it at the quilt retreat until I ran out of selvage strips. I’ve gotten more now, so back to work on it.
I want to post a picture of the Arkansas Crossroads quilt top again in this post as I am going to make finishing this quilt my One Monthly Goal for July.
To-Do list for this next week:
- Finish Fields of Green rug
- Make 3 sets of doll blankets and pillows.
- Sandwich Arkansas Crossroads quilt.
- Work on selvage rug

I like the way you arranged the dark and light fabrics in your scrappy quilt. Nicely done.
Love love Arkansas Crossroads! Lovely choice off fabrics. To hear that you’ll be finishing it soon makes my heart happy. It’s going to be so beautiful. Thanks for sharing on Wednesday Wait Loss.
Oh My! I was Marie Kondoing my storage room and found a rug in progress , but I can’t remember how to do it! Did you do a post , if not, where did you find instruction.
Your rug looks great.
It’s a locker hook rug. I took a class at the quilt shop. You can find videos on youtube though.
Wonderful progress, even if you kept running out of your materials! Thanks for linking up with To-Do Tuesday!
