Yep, still here, still sewing, still impatient with slow internet 🙁 Hard to have the blogging mojo when the photo editor takes 2 mins to load/refresh/save. I’ve been told I need to be more patient, not happening so far!
There’s a real mishmash on the design wall right now. Linking up to Judy’s Design Wall Monday for the first time in months!
Here’s my pole Barn from Julie’s Build-a-Barn blog hop:
Here’s a couple blocks for the First Saturday program:
The block on the bottom is a test alternate block. Jan, who blogs at The Colorful Fabriholic, created EQ drawings showing the the First Sat block layouts with the original alternate block design and with an alternate, alternate block I was thinking about doing, you know, for an alternative 😉 I’m cracking myself up this morning! Thanks, Jan 🙂 Here’s the original block layout with 4 bars on the side of the alt block:
And here is the three bar alternate block in the layout:
Having three bars means you won’t have to line up a seam with the star point on the main block. Turns out, I really, really like this change as it makes the whole thing not quite so busy.
Happy Quilting,
Cherie
I finished up the April green blocks so they’ve joined May & June’s blocks on the design wall. I did a little calculating and if I want to make a queen/king size from these blocks with no borders, it will take approx 3 1/2 years at 4 blocks a month sooooo…….instead of two combos, I selected four, making a total of 8 blocks. I’m not sure about the large plaids….what do you think?
Linking up with Judy’s Design Wall Monday…..for the second time this month 😉
