It's better to have the wide pieced strips in the centre part. I'll work on getting this put together, hopefully without much angst.
I went down to Adelaide last week, and took a pile of QSTs to sew. That added another 67 to the total, and today I started another 21. I'm getting very close to being able to pack away all this drab fabric, just another 40 or 50 to cut.
I thought I'd better start actually making some blocks, rather than leave it all to do at the end. I really like how it looks. I'm excited to start assembling the top, but there are other things to accomplish first. It feels like I'm taking forever on this project, but it was only December 7th when I began. If I finish the Hourglass block this month it will have been an average of 200 a month. Not too shabby.
You called the fabric in your triangles "drab" but gosh, they're turning into a gorgeous quilt that looks comforting and comfortable. I love the mix of plaids/stripes/shirtings with the prints you've chosen.
ReplyDeleteLove what you are making there, and I'm looking forward to what they will look like when done. Drab? Not at all, just muted, soft colors, ready for cuddling!
