Finding Things to Finish Up

 We're in the final countdown to 2025

and it is a great time to finish things up.

There was a lovely pile of left over blocks,

waiting in the wings for a solution. 

They are coming together into totally 

new creations. 

The first is a whole sheaf of RSC 

/Stashbuster blocks and squares left

over from the year of Irish Chains.

 There was even one half of an intended

queen size green quilt in the stack. 


I measured and fiddled and sketched and 

erased and came up with a plan.

First, I finished up the center, 

then debated colors for an inner border. 



Settling on black was the easy way out, 

but as the end result shows, a wise choice. 

Then I sorted out the sides and sewed a few.

There was a bit of easing and squeezing going

on as the inner border threw all the figures out 

of wack but it all worth it in the end. 



Ta da!


 


Now there are only a few left over blocks,

and those will find a place on the back.

Next up: left over log cabin blocks!



Good luck with all your year end finishes!

Stay safe and sew on !
