One small step at a time......the setting triangles have been cut. I'll have to look at it several times today to decide if any need to be rearranged before I sew it together. I didn't do any sewing yesterday. I did a load of laundry, went out to eat with friends, wandered into a couple antique/junque shops with same friends, visited Dad and read my book. I'm near the end of the book so I'll find out who dunnit soon.
I find it so helpful too to leave the blocks hanging on the wall and keep looking at it off and on during the day - sometimes I end up changing quite a bit and other times leave as it but it really helps to see it
I love this. The background fabric is SO effective. Great movement! I bought some of this to use as a stack-n-whack, and was disappointed to find that many of the blocks don't have much color variety, but I am still looking forward to using them to put a quilt with great motion together-someday. It is a UFO for the time being. I really admire how you stay so focused on a project.

ReplyDeleteIt's almost magic how the fabrics play off of each other.

ReplyDeleteIt really looks wonderful, Wanda.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a nice busy day and even worked in the cutting of your setting triangles.
ReplyDeleteI see the 4th of July with all the twirling circles and spinning pinwheels in this one. It has celebration all over it. (*._,*)
