I am SO tempted to sew longer, but I am pooped and my cats are galloping across all my laid out pieces because it is time for bed. This is always the riskiest stage to leave my projects. I have so many parts all over the house right now. Who knows where they will be tomorrow.
So I have completed both pages 5 and 6, which were basically both steps to create several Flying Geese blocks just with different fabric choices.
I have spent some time catching up on the forum and seeing other people's work.
We had the option to just do a handful of each page so we could start laying out blocks, but since I know there is always a chance I have to walk away from a project, often for weeks, I try to get one stage done entirely.
So basically I have a ton of Flying Geese blocks. Hopefully more work will get done at some point tomorrow or during the week. I have really enjoyed this patterns so far.
Good night.
Great colors, Sam! This will make a very nice quilt. I don't like the "dark gold" (read: baby poop brown) I used in my 2nd set of geese so I only made 12 and then stopped. I am now going to look through my stash for a more neutral brown to use instead. I hope to use the gold elsewhere in the quilt, perhaps in the areas where we're supposed to add another element :)
ReplyDeleteHa! I am catching up on your color issues as we speak. Isn't that awful when there is just that one color you can't stand. :) I actually had to do some on the fly modifying of my "dark gold" as well. That was the one fabric (D) that I had the most problem determining. I guess I don't get excited about gold in general.
DeleteI hope everything survived the night and is still organized. I like how it looks so far and can't wait to see some blocks.

I woke up to Emile eating all my labeling paper and blocks had been scattered! Grrr.
DeleteLooks like a lot of progress on your quilt. Had to laugh at your "risky stage" comment. Gotta love kitties!
ReplyDeleteOh man...it was rough. I had some late nights trying to pull as many small pieces together as I could.
