I am hustling everyday getting the 48 blocks of this quilt done.
Because I really want to teach it. At first it can seem a little (a lot) intimidating. 48 is a lot of blocks. But then you look at Lori Holt's cute quilt and her great book with all of the great layouts and quilting options. And it makes me think that not only can I do it, but I want to do it!
And sure enough, one by one, they are getting done!
And not only am I getting them done, I'm really enjoying it! I can tell my block size is more accurate.
I'm also enjoying using my stash. This book really allows you to be so scrappy! Plus I'm gaining confidence in my fabric choices and abilities as I go along.
My blocks are 6" but the book also show you how to make 12" blocks. With so many choices that you might want to make more than just one quilt.
Visit Bee in my Bonnet and enjoy her pictures with lots of inspiration. Many of her pictures look like they could be taken around here in Lincoln, California.
And I'll keep you posted on my future quilting class dates.
