After all the snowball blocks were finished, I laid them out, and, realized, that I would want pieced sashings to join the blocks. I am planning on a 4 x 5 setting for the quilt. I was able to make all the block sashings at open sew. Each sashing will need 7- 2 inch squares. I thought it would take forever, but, it was rather soothing to send 2 inch squares through the machine.
I have the side borders finished that make them a straight line for my scrappy twirl quilt.
My last official quilt in the 'to be quilted closet' is finished. hooray. Country roads is a free pattern that I started as part of the rainbow scrap challenge at so scrappy. I made the blocks in each month's color. in 2020. The top was made, ready to quilt, in 2021. This year as part of the 5 quilt project goals, I was determined to quilt my closet quilts. Each month I chose 2 specific ready to quilt, quilts to finish before any other ufo goals, and it has made a big difference in emptying the closet. I had no idea I could get so many done in one year. Now, whatsoever will I do with my quilting time 😉 The blocks were made with 1 1/2 inch scraps and the setting squares, and borders, back and binding were all from my stash as well. As a reward, I bought some fabric - you bet
