I finished the final block of the Hand Pieced QAL this week. I have to say this had been a fun and I have gained confidence as I pieced each block. It may not be something everyone enjoys, but I really like how each piece fits together and the final results. I am rearranging the block arrangement to make my final block the center of the nine blocks. I have added sashing and some setting triangles. When it's completed it will be a table topper.
I can't wait to see what some hand quilted stitches will add to this project.
I love the bright colors you are using. And yes if a person isn't in a rush they should give hand piecing (and hand quilting) a try it really is rewarding and nice to not have the sound of the machine all the time!
ReplyDeleteYou have a nice selection of solids for the blocks. Are you using one brand of solid or a mixture?
