Yesturday after breakfast and cleaning up all the dishes, I headed down to the studio. Other than a couple of short breaks, I spent the entire day sewing and trimming.
It doesn't look like much, but it pretty much took me the whole day to make these red strip blocks that are for the points of a star block. Like wow! I very much under estimated how long that would take me, and I had all the neutral points already cut!
With all of these units done, the only thing left to make are the string corner units of the star blocks. Then I will be able to assemble the stars. I now suspect that the string corner units will take me just as long to make as these units did...lol. I won't be caught off guard this time...lol. I guess it will be another full day of sewing!!! Whoohoo!!
I really am trying to get a bunch of my quilts done and off my list. I am looking to have a more manageable Works in Progress list.
Though I have a little ways left before I can call anything done, some of my friends are working away, trying to get some of their loose ends done too. This friend of mine, had these orphan blocks that she turned into a finished NICU quilt. I just put a label on the back for her and it is ready to be delivered to Project Linus.
Take care everyone. Hope you're enjoying your weekend, doing what you love to do.
