I was determined to finish the quilting on my husband's quilt before working on anything else. After three months of working at the school and not doing any quilting, I finally realized that I can't quilt unless I have a whole day to sit and concentrate on it.
However, I can piece my blocks here and there. I moved a hand crank sewing machine into the living and have a block to work on anytime I have an extra five minutes.
This is the block I made for Trish for the Sew Sweet Bee. When I saw my bowtie material, I knew I needed to make a bow tie block with it. She asked for a sampler quilt.
I made two more single wedding ring quilt blocks for my quilt. The lighting was terrible, so you cannot the colors very well.

Your blocks are lovely! I love the colors and how they look so peaceful together.
ReplyDeleteNice! I like the colors of the wedding ring blocks. It's great you can at least work a few minutes at a time. I know that it's hard to devote a long stretch when you have so many other things to get done too.
ReplyDeleteWorking really cuts into the quilting huh? Good idea to have a sewing machine and blocks ready to sew up when you have a few minutes though. Your blocks are very sweet.
ReplyDeleteYour bowtie block is adorable! Love that fabric.
ReplyDeleteBlock by block, a quilt is built! Keep cranking when you have a few spare minutes- it adds up! Enjoyed to see what you are working on.
