This quilt
has been on my list since I first saw it in this book
And I thought it would be fitting to make it in patriotic colors as America celebrates 250 years so I pulled out this bin.
There are a lot of cutting instructions and I'm starting with scraps and small pieces of well seasoned yardage so this is going to be a labor of love
I'm also going to leave the stars 1/2 blue, leave the low volumes, and make the rest in scrappy reds so there will be a bit more to sort than if I were just making it completely scrappy.
I'm off to a slow start, but I'm hoping I can find a good rythm once I get a few pieces under my belt. After 2 days, I had 3 blocks made
I've still got a lot of cutting to do, but I like where this is headed. Unless I drop everything, this is not going to be finished in July...maybe Labor Day, if I don't get sidetracked. Don't hold your breath. 😉
