First sew day of the year and
wowzer! Got nothing on my
list done!!! I was clearing off
my cozy sew space and saw the
half square triangle pieces
and couldn't resist. I made them
into 19 blocks!
Then next morning, still getting
ready , I was moving baskets of
strips intended for a Big Strings
and couldn't resist!
Most of the strings were ready so that
was a big time saver. I only had a bit of
trimming and cutting to do.
The end of sew day found me
just 20" away from having enough rows
for a nice large queen size string
quilt! Woot Woot!
This top will go into the vault for a quick
completion if we go back into the
deep freeze, weather wise!
It is actually only -22 today
so a brisk morning walk was lovely.
I did have a load of cut offs from
the strings to deal with .
The side effect of scrap quilting is,
oddly enough, more scraps!
A quick sort into color and lengths
make this heap manageable.
They can be sewn up into sections
for borders or a small top. Maybe even
another set for one of my family-to-be friends!
Lots to do ! Stay safe and sew on!
