Well, made some progress on Saturday - Sunday woke up with a migraine and halted all work - it is now 4:00 a.m. and I am wide awake - no sewing until everyone is out of bed. I will try to post progress later today.

I was always under the impression that you have a year to get a wedding present to the couple, so don't rush it!

Thursday I picked out fabric and today starting the cutting and piecing - just wanted to see if I can do this before the wedding - so I will post my progress as I go along. Here is todays blocks - I have completed 8 of these and have the fabric and strips sewn for another 8 so tomorrow back at it. Wish me luck... :thumbup:

Wow, so with just a week to complete this quilt are sewing from sun up to sun down? Also are you doing the quilting yourself as well? My hat is off to you. I would love to see the finished product. As said before GO GIRL GO!!!
