Wow...I can't believe we only have 2 more blocks for the Antebellum Album BOM. I have to admit that this was not my favorite block to make. Y seams make me crazy.
It's not perfect but it's done. I have plans on redoing this block before I put the quilt together.
And I have a finish. I made the top over a year ago and finally got it all quilted.
I made this quilt using my Accuquilt Go Cutter and my Half Hexagon die. I used a bunch of browns that I wasn't really fond of just to use my new die. Once I got the top put together I really loved it. So now it's finished and it's mine all mine.
I went to the eye doctor's yesterday to check if I did any damage to my eye when I fell. My eye has been watering badly the few weeks. Good news there is no damage. Bad news I have extreme dry eyes and my allergies are causing problems. So now I use "Refresh" eye drops 4 times a day. Drops for itching 2 times a day. And an allergy prescription drop 3 times a day. I need to write up a chart for what time to do the drops. But at least there is no damage.
The weather has changed. It's windy, cold, gray and cold. I swear I saw some snow flakes the other day. Good quilting weather.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great upcoming weekend.
Hugs, Cathy

Beautiful hexagon quilt...sorry about your eye allergies--I think allergies have been very bad this year; i am kept awake at night with them. Hello Fexofenadrine...Glad there was no damage...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteWell, the block looks good to me. I run the other way when I see Y seams. :)
ReplyDeleteYour hexie quilt reminds me that I have a half hex template and have been intending to try it for a long time. I like what you have made. Maybe it will inspire me to dig mine out. :)
Glad you didn't damage your eye!!
I like the Antebellum block. You pieced it very well. I like the pinks in the block. Your hexie quilt has a very similar look. You did good.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing your Antebellum block I am not a fan of y seams either. Did you see on the Antebellum blog that someone had redesigned the block without the y seams. Mine is also finished so I won't be redoing it. I think yours looks great!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad there was no permanent damage to your eye. Are the drops helping?
ReplyDeleteYour block is pretty and so is your quilt!!
