The Quilty Puppies and Shakespeare in the Park
#23
Thank you Ladies. I love to have those puppies near me and they love to be with me every turn. I am fixing them a spot on the sewing cabinet so they can watch while I sew lol. My Molly used to have that spot.
I did the seven blocks in a short afternoon so I suppose it won't take that long to finish the reel blocks. I am cutting today as I want as many different fabrics in the reels. So far I have just done some blues, now it's time to add all the rest. I will post pics of blocks as I go.
This couple that I am making this for, are really some dear friends of mine of many years. He in particular has given me so much of his time on different things, from learning the computer etc. It will such a pleasure to make this quilt for them, I might make two lol. I am thinking that I need at least a twin for me lol.

I have that book also (I have all her books in my collection, from the very first one). I did make that Virginia Pinwheel also. She has added the star blocks to that pattern in this book.

I got all the cutting done for the larges tri's. I cut the biggest strips first, then subcut the squares and the tri's and then use what's left for the smaller strips and tri's. This way, nothing gets wasted.
Normally I don't like to cut too many pieces but in this case, because I want to use many different fabrics, I have to cut what I need. These blocks go very fast for me, so I don't mind all the pieces. I don't know how the star blocks will go yet.
