After a very spring-like week, the weekend was rainy all day Saturday and windy and off-and-on cloudy on Sunday. Made for great sewing weather. Didn't feel like spring so....no spring cleaning haha!
First up was Civil War block of the week #10: Lincoln's Platform.
It took longer for me to pick out the fabrics for this block than to sew it together.
Also on Saturday, I worked all day on the Eventide quilt along. I made all the large quarter-square triangles and about half of the smaller ones.
I did make one test Ohio star block.
Love
This
Fabric!!
These smaller Ohio stars will be in the blues and purples with different centers and cream or taupey-gray backgrounds.
Here's the giant quarter-square triangle block!
The large stars have green points and peach accents.
I hope to get more finished this week.
I went to Sweet Home Quilt Co. today and picked up the latest block of the month from there. I came home and voila my blocks are made already. Easy peasy.
Kristie was also at Sweet Home and we *may* have bought a little wool from Bad Melisa's new wool display. There was some great plaid brown wool that would be perfect for Henrietta Whiskers. We *may* have bought the last two pieces. But I'm not telling...
