I blinked twice and time seemed to speed by. Here is what I have done since last time.
I have been handquilting 2 quilts in the evenings, working on these blocks,
and ENJOYING THE WEATHER while I can!
Okay, really I have sewn on only 3 of these blocks, the others were already gathering dust. But I have put my rear in gear and will be churning these babies out faster. I want to get rid of all the pieces of clothing that are taking up room in my sewing room. Or at least use them up as fast as I can.
Only have 19 more to go, hopefully. I have cut all the muslin I can find right now and have another 10 or 11 foundations ready for the blocks. I probably will run out of the backing I bought (8 or 9 yards were all they had and DH loved it) so I will have different backing on a few blocks.
Not sure how big this is going to end up, but the blocks are 16 1/2 " square and they will be in a 6x5 layout with sashing. I'm not even doing the math. DH will love it and that is all I care about.
