It’s coming along, albeit, slowly. The last section is laid out on the design wall.
Once this is done, it will measure about 89 inches square. So I need to decide if I want to add a border or not. I have plenty of work to do while I think about that.
The mister went to Daughter #2s house to help with some landscaping, so I ended up with a whole day to sew. That kind of uninterrupted time was just what I needed to make progress on this. I started by laying out some more pieces.
I soon realized that I needed to turn things to fit on the design wall. Things still went off the edge!
So the rest of the quilt is planned out, I just have a lot more sewing to do.
Remember these? I had all my blocks designed and partially sewn when I put them all away.
I needed a fabric to go between the blocks and finally made a decision.
The stripes are subtle compared to the prints in the blocks, but more interesting than a solid.
I finally started sewing again. It is slow going.
I had half of the first block sewn and had to decide which blocks would go adjacent and beneath it.
I don’t know if I’ll get this finished before we hit the road back to Michigan, but at least I got started. This one definitely can’t be done in a hurry.
