so far there are 7 rows sewn together and only 6 more needed for this quilt. i have a batt and need to work within the parameters of that, which is why it's a bit narrower than most quilts i make. i have another 5 strips all ready and only 1 more to assemble, so it's nearly a flimsy! i might make the august 1st self-imposed deadline after all....could be! this means i have emptied another shoebox and my UFO list is will be getting shorter soon. i might not have another finish until fall, though, which isn't that far away...how did THAT happen? **** next up from the list has to be the red/cream north wind already in progress, which is a machine project. in the meantime, my handwork projects are the lovers' links and the amish pinwheel.
I love this quilt top!!!! When I saw the blocks, I wasn't sure how you were going to set them, but this is stunning!!! Another one to add to my "make it someday list"!!!

This is great! I like the setting and the colors. It makes me want to make a pattern I have been contemplating in Christmas colors. I love all things Christmas.
ReplyDeleteYou will be busy this weekend meeting that deadline!
I was so surprised to see that "optical illusion" setting. At first it looked very busy to me, but it to growing on me!
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying all the work you are getting done, and let me warn you that enormous rain storms are coming your way.
Oh WOW! Love the quilt - the reds & greens really pop against that white.
