Whew!! I finished all 194 of these “eye” things… at last!
Now to join them to the centers.
I finally got used to sewing curves but now….all those intersections…they make me nervous. These are my first ones…thanks to my trusty seam ripper and a few tries they aren’t too bad.
Hopefully it will get better and easier and quicker by the time I sew 168 more intersections! Yikes!
Then this morning I finished two more applique blocks. A lot more relaxing project.
This means I only have 18 left to go
…and then 41 pieced blocks.
Math is not my thing but I can count down quilt blocks. LOL
A few days ago this pretty package arrived at my house and inside was…
Lots of fun!!
Thank you so much Nancy! That was really sweet of you.
Nancy has a great blog called Tattered Garden Quilting. You should go visit her. She does beautiful applique and is very inspiring.
That DWR is going to be spectacular. I can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteGreat progress on your ''eyes''... loving the applique blocks... such a busy lady you are xxx
ReplyDeleteLove your projects... both are really beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOhhh I have that Kaye England book. I so enjoyed reading the history of these ladies and their quilts.
ReplyDeleteLove your eyes and your applique blocks are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteLove love love your work Annette <3
ReplyDeleteLove the double wedding cheerful prints. Good to practice joining the melons. Maybe you could share a photo when some are joined?
ReplyDeleteYour eyelash quilt is almost there!!! Congratulations! I have always wanted to make one... but I'm waiting for a shortcut version, ha!
ReplyDeleteYour applique quilt is stunning also!
You're brave to do a double wedding ring! Have you seen the video on YouTube from Kaye Wood about a different double wedding ring technique? Maybe you should finish the one you're working on first, then watch it... I wish you good fortune with the rest of the quilt, it's going to be gorgeous :)
