On to clue 2 of the mystery quilt. I worked 12 hour shifts 4 days of this weekend. That does not allow for much sewing time:(. But on Saturday evening I managed to cut some strips and on Sunday evening I cut some squares. Monday I did not have much time to sew because I had to go to work early, but Tuesday it was on. I sewed up just enough blocks to get my fix on and back to my Christmas Memory quilts. So here is mine so far!!!!
I mark all my blocks and I did do the second line on my blocks to make these tiny little blocks. I don't think I have worked with any pieces this tiny before!!! I have my mason jar slowly filling up. This process did not take much extra time at all!! So excited to see what I will make of this!! You know I am on a scrapping journey that I hope never ends!!!!
My fabric is mostly out of my stash. In theme with the name I used the Irish knot and St. Patricks day fabric. I did not have very much fabric with the base of white in my stash, so there is a lot of the same pieces. After I finished putting it together I realized a lot of my fabric I bought in a destash group on Facebook from the same person. The rest I mostly bought from Tonya at Hillbilly Handiwors Quilt shop. Hope you like my color choices! I tried to stay very close to Bonnie's!!! I look forward to finishing out this quilt!
That is going to be beautiful but then all of your quilts are. :)
ReplyDeleteI love my tri recs rulers! I have used them multiple times. You can get one online at JoAnn.com - although that Accu cutter sure sounds spiffy. I was tempted myself to get one when I saw other ladies using it to cut out there step 1.
