Less Play, More Sewing?


LOL if I did that, I might actually get more blocks sewn! :-) I made another pair of blocks this morning, and then had to arrange them out again to "see"~~ at this rate, they may never get done! My friend and I are each making these blocks, and then we are going to trade our 'duplicates' so we each end up with all different blocks in our quilts. I thought the 9 inch block would be pretty easy to do, I was wrong! :-o I am having lots of trouble keeping points and getting the block to measure the right size. I haven't quite figured out where my problem is~ the stretchy bias maybe? I've resorted to starching. I am using my quarter inch foot, but something is still off just enough to make my blocks end up a little on the small side~ ??? Ah well, my own quilt may end up huge because I am not trading the wrong size blocks! ;-) Back to the sewing machine~~


On another note~ thank you for posting and welcoming me to the blog ring! This is fun! ;-)


Until next time~

Happy Stitchin'!

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
