After burning thru an hour and a half on the phone with family business, I got to work. The evening was all about cutting fat quarters from a dark and light fabric, pressing them, and then improv cutting them. I sorted the pieces, stacked them up, and then pinned them to the design wall. Once the blocks are made I will probably move some of the blocks around, but for now I am just trying to keep everything orderly. Here is the design wall with the cut stacks hanging and the FQ pieces that still need cut.
I am taking a day of vacation tomorrow so with three days of working on this quilt, how far do you think I will be by Monday? I have a haircut appointment Saturday, I have to get my canna planted, and I will probably have to mow, but the majority of my time will be working on this quilt.
Thanks to everyone for their encouragement and support that I can get this done by June 20! Lisa, you have a no-reply so I couldn't email you back. I think I have your email address somewhere ..., but thanks for the cheering!
Have a great weekend!
I'm betting you have the flimsy finished! :) You can do it!! Love the fabrics you have chosen, can't wait to see what you accomplish with your three days.
ReplyDeleteI think you will be quilting by Monday! But the REAL question is, do you know the telephone number for the pizza delivery guy?
