I didn't have a lot of time to sew these blocks, I had a customer quilt to bind and those borders on the Meadow top took forever.I got six put together, making 27 all up. I need 99, so I'm almost a third of the way there. But what are those blocks beneath?
I am being inundated with red and white scraps. What I don't use in the 2 & 4 top are going to be cut into 9" Jacob's Ladder blocks. I don't often make 2 colour quilts, but I need to get these red bits under control. I'm going to go from shirtings to dark butterscotch with the light pieces, to give it a bit of movement, and I hope that will help clean more scraps out of the neutral scrap drawer. Once I have that whittled down, I think I'm going to choose a heap of neutral FQs from the drawers and run them through the AccuquiIt using the 2" strip die. It will be lovely to have a whole drawer of fresh neutral strips waiting to be used.
Love those blocks! I am so excited for your progress.
