I finished all the blocks for my anvil quilt as my November One monthly goal. My December goal was to finish it as a top.
I really love the shirting fabrics. This block has been a favorite. I can cut the hsts with my accuquilt. I can sew in short bursts. And, it comes out very nicely with an aha while pressing it. I think it looks classic and has a hint to an old vintage quilt.
Now, that my goal is finished, I will add it to the to be quilted closet. This quilt has been part of my 5 quilt project, which will start 2024 with all new Ufos to complete. I am itching to get started.
