I cannot believe I am going to do this, much less that I am actually quite excited about it!
I very much enjoy having something to work on in the evenings while sitting in front of the tv. There is still a lot of embroidery left on my 'snow days' quilt, but sometimes I want something a bit different to do. Well, wouldn't you know...along comes Erin of Why Not Sew? blog fame with her bright (read fantastic!) idea of doing a hand-piecing quilt along. I'm in. Like Flynn. (OH! Remind me to tell you about that!)
So. I am going to do it. We'll be doing twelve 6.5 inch blocks...one per week.
I looked at several different fabrics that would work, and decided to use these oranges...
I'll throw in a few aquas here and there with some kind of white as background. I have the most fun backing picked out...just wait til you see it! {grin}
And, ohgosh, a major oops! Three days ago, I realized I haven't yet made a quilt for my niece/godchild, Michelle! YIKES! Her birthday is February 21...think I can get it done by then? I ordered some Kona solids that I need for it and will get going as soon as they arrive.
In the meantime, I am working on a few smaller projects. I'll show you as I get them done.
Hope you're having a good weekend!
