Rows done!

Getting so close to finishing this one!  I might be posting pictures of the finished quilt sometime on Sunday!  Already have planned my next project and am excited to start it.  Some very pretty fabric that followed me home the other week when I ran to town for the sashing material for this one.  Pattern will be from book that came in the mail this past week also!

XOXO,
Karen

2 Rows Done

Have 2 of my 7 rows together.  Chain assembling the sashing on the rest.  17 more of those, then will start assembling the rest of the rows.  Then its just sashing on 6 rows to assemble the 7 rows together, binding & DONE!  :)

Assembly

Ran to the Quilted Windmill yesterday to get the assembly sashing (and found more super cute fabric!).  Have most of the sashing cut that I'll need.  Have 3 of the blocks assembled!  Today I'll be squaring up the rest of the blocks and will see how many rows I can get joined.  :)

Quilting As I Go!

New ironing board is set in place & I've started the quilting of the blocks!  12 done so far.  No travel plans for the long weekend so good chance this quilt will be close to done, out at least about ready for binding.  Still need to figure out what fabric I want to use for the sashing/assembly.  Might require a trip to the fabric store!  ;)

Layout Design!

This is one of my favorite parts of the process, laying everything out to see how its going to go together!  Although my OCD does cause some issues when the color numbers don't break out evenly!

Back sewing!

We got the sewing room painted & flooring down so now I can start organizing & sewing again!  Been working on some more of the 10 minute blocks that I plan to try the quilt as you go method.  Pinning them seems to take the longest time so plan to watch some TV while I pin a bunch that I have ready. 5 done only 37 more to go!
