I haven't decided if I'm going to bring Swoon out of exile. I'm already missing it, but there is still fear that I will ruin the quilt once and for all.
"Exile" is the spare bedroom, where the blocks are hidden out of sight.
Alternatively, I could work on some more bow-tie blocks. I have lots of squares cut and ready to sew.
I've been adding to my pile slowly. I now have 126 blocks completed; I was planning to make 208 and have a queen-sized quilt, but I think I might make this one smaller now that I've decided to make Swoon for my bed.
.
These blocks have been fun to make, especially since I received some wonderful red fabrics from my bloggy friends Jen of Miss Punkie Pie and Julie of My Quilt Diary. This is my no-pressure quilt - there's no deadline for me to finish it.
I might also choose to work on a little Valentine's project using these teeny 1.5" squares.
So, I have lots of choices, all of them exciting to me!
I hope you will join me in FNSI - you can sign up with Bobbi this month over at Crafty Vegas Mom.
See you tomorrow night!
Oh...you are doing two fun projects....
ReplyDeleteI will be picking up the pedal again tomorrow (I hope!) I am looking to finish stitching up the parts of Paige's quilt that I had to pick out in order to add more backing before adding the binding. What a mess! I may even upload my second-ever blogpost explaining the tedious steps. The final product is really wonderful, despite all the setbacks!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great plan Rachel. Let Swoon out of prison LOL!
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to officially sign up but I will probably do some sewing. And get on Swoon! You can do it! I'm almost done with block 3.
