I now have 8 blocks for my string quilt done. Each one is 8 1/2" x 8 1/2". I didn't get to sew today as long as I had hoped but I'm happy with 8. I also had to hem some curtains for a friend of mine so that cut into my quilting time. Oh well, 8 is a nice start.

My first VQD! Pieced the backing for my log cabin quilt and now I'm glue basting. Have about 2/3 of the batting glued down. Will finish tomorrow and glue the top. Then I can start FMQ'ing. Still not sure how I want to quilt it but I have a couple of ideas floating around in my head! Hope everyone gets their list accomplished today.

Thanks for having the VQD. I just finished what I hoped to get done. I have 9 squares left to quilt and then I plan on machine quilting the borders.

Sorry I wasn't able to quilt with all of you today but you have all done an amazing job. I took my Mom to church then my husband and I had lunch with her. Didn't get home til almost 3:00. Then ended up falling asleep in my chair. I was up til 1:00 last night removing quilting from a project I started a couple years ago. This week I have managed to get 26 blocks done for the Women of Courage quilt (BOM with LQS) and pieced a block for another BOM. Also caught up on my American Girl clothes for granddaughters. This is a wonderful idea and I love to see everyone's projects.
