tuesday progress

Procrastination no more... I was rather scared of finally putting this 9 patch together... I just thought trying to make everything line up that it would end up all wavy etc... so I was dreading actually sewing it together.... I tend to NOT do a lot of small pieced patchwork quilts...

BUT! I have half of fit together, and I must say, It's gotten me to SLOW down, and actually enjoy the speed in which it is going together... So, I am doing a few rows a day, with the goal of Friday to have it all put together... I do find that I am thinking about two quilts ahead as I am putting this together... ;-)


So maybe I put it aside for now, and do a little on something else for awhile.




Sunny but cold, in NYC... will it ever end.

  2. I just love all the nine patch blocks. There is just something about nine patch quilts, they are so beautiful.

  3. Looks good in the photo! I put together a lot of quilts with blocks made by a variety of people (for Project Linus), and that's much harder than putting together blocks you made yourself. I do like those set with the white.
