Progress on the Tiny Album blocks
I'm moving slowly towards a finish on the Tiny Album blocks. I chose a pink from the stash, and it's a really old one, I think it was from the Cocheco range. It has nothing printed on the selvedge, so no clue there.
I made the blocks in several long sewing sessions, I was grimly determined to get this closer to a finish, and there were quite a few nights that I called it quits at 2am. Silly of me, but I don't have anyone to answer to.
I use the parts of one block as a leader-ender for the block I'm working on. During one of those late night sessions my concentration slipped, and I did this.
I was about to press it and then thought, 'Hmm, that doesn't look right....'
I fixed it with a bit of seam ripping, but it was time to call it a night. I didn't want to make a mistake trimming those blocks to size, I would be devastated to make a slip with the rotarty cutter. Cant fix that.....

The pink sashing just brings your blocks to life, love it!
You came up with the perfect fabric--the pink is fabulous! Even better that it came from the archives--lol!
Love Karen's the reference that the pink came from the archives. I agree late night rotary cutting can lead to nothing but trouble!!
I agree that the pink makes the quilt. Good choice.
