The piecing has been going well for me in the quilt along. I now have all the setting blocks stitched together and have caught up with the star blocks. Yay!
This is the block I've made for week #8...
and here's a look at all eight weeks of blocks, shown with the setting blocks (and empty spaces which are for the remaining star blocks coming up in the next few weeks).
I love having them laid out on the living room floor for me to look at. It is so motivating to see it grow, block by block. I guess I can't leave it like this though, as tempting as it is. I'm going to have make a design board to put my quilt blocks on so that I can enjoy works-in-progress and not worry about them being stepped on. ;o)

It coming along nicely! I have a carpet design wall too.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are looking good! I'm really behind on mine! You've just motivated me right into finishing!
ReplyDeleteIt looks really fantastic! Great job.
ReplyDeleteI have a similar design wall, but mine is wood... same idea, though! LOL
Very nice, your setting blocks look good too! It is fun to see it grow.
ReplyDeleteKatherine I have a carpet design wall too.. unfortunately for me, the quilt police (aka the furry critter) likes rolling on my carpet design wall and causes a huge kerfuffle and blocks have been known to stick to him after his 'critique'..

PS the quilt is looking fabbo!
Love your blocks and setting blocks! My design wall is a piece of molton and two coat-/pants-hangers... hung into two archive-boxes! Kind of a take-away design-wall!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that is looking beautiful Katherine! I think this winter we'll all be coming over to your house for tea and movies since you'll have enough quilts to keep us all cosy ;-)
ReplyDeleteyour quilt is fabulous! isn't it wonderful to see progres?
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look marvelous!
ReplyDeleteI haven't done week 8 yet and now week 9 is probably up. I'll have to remedy that situation.
