Here is my test block for Connor's quilt...I like this one a lot better than the
"eye-straining" first ones....LOL
I am using the Quilt As You Go method (QAYG) and setting the 2" strips onto
a rough cut 13.5" piece of batting; I quilt each strip with 3 rows--and will true them up to one size after all 24 are done....
I must confess that i HAD (Ohhh too bad-- LOL) to buy light gray fabric for the remaining 23 blocks......
This was the ONLY small piece of light gray I had in my stash--I bought gray skies and bare branches in grays...will have to await their arrival before making any other blocks.
In the meantime (".....in between time, ain't we got fun!") I am cutting 2" red strips using my AQ cutter aafter washing all the reds in hot water and then ironing ....today will be an ironing day....my secret is that I have always LOVED to iron....it just is so relaxing ....
Here is my Lil GO!BABY at the ready....
And here are two of the fabrics i have picked for the backing...
This morning I awakened to this sight:
Autumn has begun--this is always the first tree to turn in our yard...right
off our deck...so lovely....
such brilliant colors....warms your heart....
Tonight hubster will be making his beef barley soup--so no cooking for me--
a day off...;))))
hugs, on a warm and humid Sunday morning--(doing my rain dance)
hoping for some kind of rain....it is so dry here...severe drought...
