First we had hot steamy weather with a strong wind out of the south. Then the wind changed and came out of north and we had cold weather and rain. I got a call from my son in the UP and they got SNOW...crazy and it's May.
I finally finished Sally Post Block 14. I don't know why but I think this block intimidated me. So many pieces. I'm taking a little break from Sally...she is getting to clingy....lol
I finished 6 more Box in a Box blocks. These are blocks from the Fat Quarter Shop Sampler quilt. I'm making 20 of each block for a wedding quilt.
This is from a kit I got from Craftsy. It is 24" x 24" and will be a Christmas gift. Right now it resides on my to be quilted pile. Just waiting for my hands to heal a bit longer from my Carpal Tunnel Surgery. It still hurts a bit when I try pinning a quilt sandwich.
So far I have 2 blocks made. These are the center blocks. They are 6" blocks.
I've been working on a few projects.
This is a booklet that came with the latest issue of "Today's Quilter". I fell in love with the sampler picture on the cover. It is called "Walnut Grove Sampler".
I decided to add a 1 1/2" sashing to my 2014 BOM blocks. I am adding friendship stars to the sashing where the blocks connect. Then I will add a 1 1/2" border of the same sashing fabric around the quilt and then a final border from the main fabric.
Slow and steady progress is being made. I also started working on another Red and Green block. I should be able to show you a finished block next time.
I hope you are enjoying better weather than we are. Thanks for stopping by.
Hugs, Cathy
