My design wall this morning is full of things ready for the next steps.
All 9 of the pink Snail's Trail blocks are made and ready to assemble into a baby quilt. Since they are 12" finished blocks, that will make this only 36" square which is just a bit smaller than I would like for a baby quilt. But I have lots of that center pink, so my plan is to add a border. Maybe about 4" wide would give this a good finished size.
Another plan for this week involves this month's Saturday Sampler. The Christmas version of the 6th block is made, but it still needs it's pieced sashing. And I need to make the other 2 color versions of this block. This was another easy one to do.
The final barn for Barn Silo is brown. With all 4 barn blocks made, I've begun working on the sashing, which involves small 9-patches as cornerstones, and sashing made with 3 narrow strips each. Half of the 9-patches are done and all of the remaining pieces are cut so I can just focus on sewing it all together this week.
These 3 projects are my main goals for this week, but there is also some binding to work on if I end up with some time.
Linking up with Design Wall Monday:
Love the barn! Two of the snail blocks look cream colored and not white....if you make them opposite corner blocks they will look better! Just a suggestion!
ReplyDeleteGreat projects! The baby quilt is going to be a good size with the added border.
ReplyDeletePretty in pink. Looks like you and Mari are on the same path. She just completed a Snails Trail quilt with blues
