Quilting class is over, done, kaput! Did I finish this quilt? NO! Did my Mom finish her quilt? NO! So, we are doing what women have done for centuries. We are getting together once a week to get these quilts finished. We may be meeting for the next 20 years, at the rate we are sewing.
Here is the beginning of my quilt.
These are the colors I started with. I did finally choose not to use the yellow fabric. I’m just not much of a fan of this shade of yellow. Here is my first block.
It has four patch units in it. We learned an easy way to sew these.
Here is the first block. I sewed ten of these blocks. I cut off one edge while photographing it so the block looks bigger on one side than the other.
This is the second block. We started sewing the pin wheels. They were a chore but now I know how to sew them. Then we sewed together the flying geese part of the block which is the pink and white star points. Â We sewed the four patch blocks at home since we knew how to sew them from earlier in the class. I have so much left to sew.
Talk to you later,
Karen
