On July 4, 2007 at the urging of my friend Diane, I started my blog and it has been a wonderful journey! Today is post #3489 in 3288 days. And I thought I would run out of things to say.....
I love taking the photographs for the blog too.
Yesterday I changed my mind on the mindless piecing. I was going to add more blocks and make it longer but instead I chose the Martha Negley twig fabric as a narrow border and decided to use the pieced strips as borders.
I trimmed the center and the border strips and sewed it together. It is 17" x 21". Now I'm not sure if it is a table centerpiece or small wall art.
My other project yesterday was ironing the creases out of 23 pink fabrics. I have wanted to make an all pink quilt for a long time. The fabric on the right is enough for a backing. I have decided to do another 16 patch quilt because that is great mindless sewing while watching Netflix. Some of the fabrics are fairly small pieces so the larger pieces will be repeated more often in the quilt. There is no hurry on this project and it will be a fill in when I don't have anything else to work on. I will start cutting strips today.
