Thready Thursday

Only managed a couple of hours in the studio today………..working on the test pattern for Teresa of SewnUp fame.  I am really enjoying this pattern.  It is a perfect pattern for novice quilters.  The blocks are 12″ so they go together fairly quickly.  In fact I have the quilt almost done.  The cutting and piecing the blocks have taken approximately 2 hours.  In less than an hour tonight I managed the first two rows of piecing the rows, sashing and corner blocks.  The pattern is well written and the blocks would work well for fabric that can be fussy cut.  I’m working with a variety of fabrics (cottons; patterned and batiks) from several suppliers (Moda, Northcott and Windham fabrics all leftovers from various projects!  What fun!

I must admit, I am anxious to have this practise quilt done so I can get going on the queen size version.

I have been fondling fabric and creating things with fabric and fiber for as long as I can remember. My children had homemade clothes, blankets, canning and quilts most of their lives. Now I create goodies to share! Hope you enjoy viewing them as much as I enjoy making them! When I am not creating with fiber or fabric I keep busy with Dear Heart, kids, grandkids, great grandkids.
