If the hand-sewing purpose of my 24-hour interval weren't so, um, speedy, I mightiness mean value I'm non making whatever progress at all. But at that spot it is...I've filled my hoop again, in addition to right away I'm simply slightly to a greater extent than than halfway roughly the commencement plate for Pieces of the Past. I'm actually enjoying this pretty design.
As for the Semper Fi quilt, it's moving along to a greater extent than piece of cake than I imagined. After one-half a day's assay out yesterday, I'd entirely added ane to a greater extent than side to the edge of stars.
One would mean value that amongst Sadie helping me cut...
in addition to Smitty helping me sew...
I'd convey accomplished to a greater extent than inward a whole day. But no. By day's cease I'd entirely added ane to a greater extent than side to this border.
To add together insult to injury, I counted out the cutting squares for the one-half foursquare triangles yesterday, in addition to realized I even in addition to then didn't convey enough. I'm non certain when I forgot how to count. Somewhere betwixt right away in addition to my final birthday, I seem to convey run out of fingers to operate along rails of such things. I've used nearly all of the enterprise blueish fabric, in addition to and then I promise I convey plenty to brand upwardly the difference. Fortunately, I saved the information nearly it, in addition to and then I tin guild to a greater extent than if I postulate to.
So I'll selection it upwardly at that spot this morning, in addition to I should convey this commencement star edge finished past times day's end. Today is a CSA pick-up day...the final pick-up for the season...and in addition to then my sewing 24-hour interval volition locomote interrupted this afternoon. I'm looking frontward to finishing off this circular of stars in addition to then I tin add together some brighter borders in addition to lighten upwardly the whole quilt some. It's looking pretty black simply now.
Also looking pretty black is the morn outside. As I'm writing this at nearly 7:30, it's even in addition to then black equally black outside. It's expert we'll locomote "falling back" this weekend. Then I'll locomote able to switch my complaining to the darkness at the cease of the day. Variety is the spice of life.
