Tonight is another FNSI

My intention for tonight is to finish up all the blocks and put them on my flannel block board to arrange. If I have the time I will start to put the rows together. Maybe with luck I will have the top completed before tomorrow morning.

I have every intention to post pictures before I leave the house Saturday morning. Let's see how that goes.

Have a great day.

FNSI pictures for you

I have up loaded my pictures from Friday. Here they are:


Above are the fabrics I will be using.


These are the initial cuts of the fabric. I am cutting 2 1/2 inch strips of the black fabric. There are 7 X 7 squares of the penguin fabric. The star fabric and the orange fabric will become half square triangles.


These are the first of the half square triangles before squaring up.

This is my first block completed.

This is a stack of blocks ready to sew.

I have completed nine blocks and have eleven to go. All the black strips are cut and all the half square triangles are sewn and ready for squaring up.

I will post more picture later.

Have a nice day.

I broke my word to you.

Last night was very busy and the camera was the last thing on my mind.

I did do some more fabric cutting on this project.

However, I committed to knitting hats for the Lighthouse Youth Services in Cincinnati and had one pink hat to finish. I turned in all the hats this week and now am free to get back to my sewing.

I told DH that I would be in the sewing / craft room this evening. He was not delighted...he'll have to learn to deal with it.

Have a great day. I hope to have pictures for you very very soon.

FNSI -- December 10

I actually had progress Friday. I have a quilt that I am making for a co-worker. It is intended as a Christmas present.

The fabrics are black, rust and blue with white stars. Also there is a coordinated fabric of the blue with white stars with penguins all over. The center square is 7" by 7" and is surrounded by 7" by 2 1/2" blocks in the black and 2 1/2" half square triangles in the orange and blue with white stars fabric. I took pictures and will try to post them this evening.

I have completed one block and have enough half square triangles for an additional 12 blocks. The blocks will be sewn together with the blocks set on point.

After I post the pictures this evening, I will continue to take pictures and post them as the quilt top is completed. It will be tied rather than quilted due to the procrastination of the quilter. LOL.

Have a great day.

Sorry.

Have a great day
