Twenty Blocks Sewn in One Day
Okay, the blocks only have seven pieces each, but there are thirty blocks. I just finished. Whew! Tomorrow I will lay them out to see what the placement will be.
|
what design did you so. please show us what you did. I always need a quick design. congrats on your blocks.
|
Wow, that's a lot of blocks. Can we see a picture when you lay them out?
|
a very productive day!
|
I knew I said that wrong. It was thirty blocks. I will take a picture later today.

I am sorry I messed that up. I really did all thirty since about noon yesterday. I am naming it "Do Not Disturb" like the little signs in hotels. I plan to keep this one and spend a lot of time wrapped in it with my eyes closed. As I fell into sleep last night, I was thinking I could quilt it with sheep all over. Just a thought.
I plan to add a border but not sure yet what color. It will be 56 x 66 when done. |
30 blocks. That a quilt top. Congrats.
|
Looks great!!

That Is great..just goes to show that when you are not disturbed much quilting can get done. I sometimes cook enough for several days so that I can devote more time to do what I want. DH does not eat at regular times..so he uses the microwave a lot. For a Mexican man he doesn't expect me to serve him or warm his tortillas..learned that a long long time ago. Happily marries 43 yrs.

I'm enjoying your quilts with batiks recently! This is another that shows the fabric beautifully!
|
Thanks for the picture. That's going to be a beautiful quilt. It will be so snugly warm. I think quilted with sheep would be fantastic.
|
Love the fabric. Wish I could get that much done in one day :)
|
Boston that's impressive and attractive quilt...I am slow & I admire those who can whip through things.
mamagrande - that's the best kind of guy to have. First I let the cooking go (lots of one-dish or 'get your own' meals) & then the housework (except sporadically about once a week) & then the garden: DH did complain about the vegetable garden though (my favorite to work on out of the three anyway). Congratulations on 43 years! |
I would audition several fabrics and choose the one that pleases you best. Blue - calming, purple - royalty, green - happy, red - hot, yellow – overpowering, etc.
|
Nice! That's a lot of blocks in a short period of time. It's going to be a beautiful quilt
|
what a fun idea to use sheep on this cozy creation. A fast and fun pattern.
peace |
Awesome, both a quick project and a great use of scraps. I like it. : )
|
Awesome top! I love the batiks you chose. You had a busy day but so much fun!
|
Great job!
|
Pretty colors. I know you will love cuddling under that one.
|

|
Love your quilt.
