I was going to post for Work In Progress Wednesday over at Freshly Pieced, but time got away from me... apparently my time spend sewing and my time spent blogging are often inversely proportional - who knew? Anyway, paper piecing is still going pretty well. It's a long process, since the blocks are a lot more involved than anything I have ever made before, and any time I get tired I start making dumb errors, but the product is looking good!
I have to make 24 red blocks and 32 cream blocks. I have set a goal for myself of 5 blocks a night until I am done - at least with the paper piecing part.
Then I will probably shelve this project for other, more pressing Christmas Projects. So much to do so little time... Here's what's on the list.
Christmas To-Do
- Pillowcases
- Stockings 1 2 3 4 5
- Basketweave quilt
- Apron
- Christmas Quilt
- Christmas Quilt II
Here is my list but it is just a jumble of ideas all tumbling over each other in my mind since I want to do them all and have not prioritized them. Even when I do make a list, the most recently purchased piece of fabric generally cuts in line because of a split second flash of inspiration.
