swept away

I finished piecing the sea swept cornerstone blocks at Friday quilt group.


And then I had to trim them. I used the studio 180 squared squared to trim them.


And then I counted them - sigh, I am 6 short. hmm- maybe I had the steps backward. haha

But, they are beautiful and I am so pleased.

Sue is back to Friday group after covid. We have missed her.


and I gave Linda her quilt back after quilting it. It was a beauty.

progress

This seems like a small accomplishment for my sea swept quilt, but, I have made a decision to cut new blocks for the sashings and trim down to the right size. These 2 blocks were made using the exact measurements. They are not bad but a little small. I need 56 of these blocks for the quilt I am making.


Our guild had an open sew and charity quilt workshop Saturday. I took my accuquilt and tumbler die for cutting through donation fabrics. Somehow my die was broken and we had to suspend the cutting. sigh... I've never had that happen before, everyone thinks it was their fault. I wasn't in the room, but, I don't think anyone was at fault. It really doesn't bother me. I just wish we could have gotten more cut for the donation quilts.
I had a few minutes to work on carolina chain. I sewed most of the blocks into sets of 2. And I have a couple sets of 4. fun


It looks like a beautiful Monday here in Indiana and we have "chores" to get done.
