Sewing Update

So they came out pretty nicely for being pieced. I really only have a 4"X6" square and a very oddly cut semi circle piece that I don't think is even an inch wide left. I maxed out the fabric on this one. :-)
I also got some cotton sateen to use for mom's dress rather than the silk (it's rose colored and I think it pairs better with the velvet), a hanky weight linen cotton blend (it was on sale), a yard of brocade for Ginsie's project, and a fleece panel of a 19th c painting that I know I've seen before but I can't remember the name of...it's two girls playing at the piano and I think it's here in DC. I also got a bunch of thread and ribbons. Since only the muslin and the fleece were really for me (all the rest is for projects to make for someone else) I don't think I did too badly.
