Progress made on the beaded curtain a/k/a argyle............
I did add one more row of the argyle pattern at the bottom so there are 3 across and 4 from top to bottom. I chose the fill in fabric and got it cut too. It isn't white but it still has the effect of white fabric.
It is a pale creamy yellow fabric with spatters and a little bit of lavender for the blocks that filled in the middle part. I didn't have enough to use the same fabric all the way through the quilt. This picture looks grainy but the fabric doesn't.
This is the same fabric line only this one is pale yellow with a little pink in the background and the spatters. I used this one all around the outside edge of the quilt.
This is how far I got. All of the rows on the top left are sewn. 3 of the rows are just squares hanging onto the flannel board and floor, and the bottom right corner rows are sewn.
This is the remaining 4 rows clipped together and waiting to be sewn, so 7 rows to go and I am done sewing one way. I can't sew the rows together until I pick the fabric for the setting triangles at the edges.
The guys working on my chimney will be back again tomorrow morning to finish up. They are coming at 6:30 to try to beat the heat. It was really humid yesterday until late afternoon.

Today is 9 patch day on my list. I am meeting a friend for lunch, taking my dad to the Dr. late in the afternoon and taking Dad out to eat at night so I hope I can make a little progress on the quilt. My goal is to sew 3 sets of strips and make the 9 patches from them. I don't have a big design wall free yet for designing so that will wait for next week.
