Starting with evening sewing, the Sunday only project has 14 new strips. They are on the wall in no particular order as that will be figured out when I get all of the strips sewn. I had 112 strips sewn previously so I have 126 sewn now. Here is a link to last week's post if you want more info about the project.
Earlier in the day I sewed 5 new scrappy log cabin blocks and started 5 more. I need to cut more light strips before I can continue. I think I have 45 seven inch blocks now.
Even earlier in the day I moved a few blocks and then sewed the next 2 row section and then sewed the individual row above the last 4 rows. I pinned them up on the wall overlapped slightly so I could move the remaining blocks up and get the bottom row off the floor. I'm happy with the bottom 4 rows so hopefully I will get them sewn today or tomorrow. Then I need to press all of the sections and sew the sections together. I am hoping to have the top together by the end of the month. I was thinking about a Charley Harper pieced border to make it twin bed size but I'm not sure now. To be continued.............
Arboretum is looking beautiful! You are doing such a super job blending all the blocks together...nice work.;)))
ReplyDeletethe triangles are mounting up--will be waiting to see how you will set them...

You have several projects going on and they are all interesting!
ReplyDeleteLove your thoughts on a C.H. border for your Arboretum. You are making great progress on Log Cabin and Sunday/Holiday both. Great post today Wanda.

I would need to see the border with your Arboretum top - I love it just the way it is sans border but I could be wrong! Lovely color blasts today.
