Coming Along on Sew Along

Sew, as you know, I jumped onto a sew along over at

Conquering Mount Scrapmore, Brenda Logan's site.

I'm making pretty good progress.

This is the little project that got me started

on the spring sew along.

I was making 4 1/2" beige/crumb strips

for this scrap quilt project with crumb squares.

It required these two units. 

I had a mass of beige strings left so when I 

came across the sew along  

working with beige strings,

I jumped right on. 

Here's what I have so far!

Step 1

I have a 3 1/2" ruler so that made 

the first step easy.

Step 2

The second part moved along quickly, 

making little diagonal string blocks. 

I even had some larger brown blocks that quickly cut 

down into the correct size. 

Step 3

This step just required plain squares so it 

was easy. 

Step 4

A classic peaky and spike block 

was next. I made it with the 

tri tool & rex tool by EZ quilting. 

Step 5

Then another peaky and spike in a different 

color combination for step 5. 

Step 6

Step 6 is more challenging.  It is a 

stretched diamond with beige corner triangles. 

Not one ruler I have would match the corner

angle so I made a cardboard template to assist. 

The corners are not on but the center diamonds are complete.

Step 7 

TBD

Step 8

Step 9

TBD

Step 10

TBD

Step ?

I'm not sure how many steps this sew along will have,

but I'm not really figuring out what it's going to look like!

I thought I had it figured but then some four patches

and pinwheels came into the mix on step 10! 

I guess we'll just have to

stay tuned and see what happens.

Still working on the TBD (to be done) blocks

and I want to be finished with the sew along by month end

if the steps stop coming! 

Scraps only this month, no fabric purchased!

Stay Safe and Sew on!
