So, 2 weeks later...

Weekend Update

Weekend Update

20 more blocks for Laura's quilt

I have all the blocks cut for a quilt for the pending granddaughter of a friend.  She wants it big, twin sized in fact, and as of yesterday I have all the pieces cut for a 54"x72" quilt.  Many of the blocks (simple, all HSTs) are done as well, but since they're 6", there's a lot of them.  It's pretty mindless piecing at this point, and top assembly will probably take less time than actually creating a pleasing, balanced layout.  That's my goal for this week - a finished top by next weekend.  This is a wee selection - about 1/3 of the final count.  I find that I am better able to critique a placement or fabric choice through the lens of a camera than I am up close and personal. 

I've got some other unpleasantries to deal with this week - mostly paperwork related.  Sewing will be a pleasant distraction.
