I have put the Marti Michell back up on the wall. It is now 1/2 done. Six blocks sewn with the star sashing. I changed the enlongated stars to friendship stars after mis-cutting the points. With the straight setting it worked out just fine, I think.
I still have 3 blocks left to make and put the final borders on.
I got a little side-tracked last week by a new project... I know, I know, I need a new project like I need another hole in my head! But since I'm thinking "Pink" for my daughter who will bless us with another addition to the family after the first of next year, I had to do it in miniature for the baby girl in my hopes and dreams. No pictures will be shown until the pattern is published. Lynn and I are getting so close to sending our pattern to Print. Meanwhile I have a couple of fair entries, Guild Log Cabin Blocks and a couple of SWAPS to work on.
There's still some time to Vote on the quilts at the Quilting gallery too. Mine is the Patriotic Logs and Stars. You can vote until 11:59pm Monday night.
I can hardly wait to see what Judy L has on her Design Wall in the Morning...It's just a click away.

ReplyDeleteI really love the sampler - the colors are put together so well. And gosh - doesn't everyone need a new project now and then???
