the past couple of days i've been making blocks for the red/cream northwind quilt. i already have 2 rows together and this stack of 50 more (once squared up and re-pressed) to be attached. that will make this flimsy half done! it's going to be a rainy weekend so should be an ideal time to make real progress. i'm also working on 2 other full-size quilts as well; one is the amish scrappy pinwheel (hand work) and i'm also quilting on the lovers' links. right now i'm assembling the final 8 pinwheels of the amish scrappy, so soon that will be a flimsy too (empty shoebox). with 4 months to go before the end of the year, it's possible i could get 2 of these 3 projects done; nice but not crucial. finishing the red/cream will use up all my red scraps, a very good thing indeed, plus empty another shoebox.

I think squaring up HST is my least favorite job. I've been sewing some as my leader/enders lately and I think I will have to find a really good movie to watch while I mindlessly trim. : )
ReplyDeleteYou are making real strides on your goals--the empty shoeboxes are a great feeling, aren't they?
