I finally have finished all the published blocks for Cheddarback quilt. Although tomorrow is October 1st and another set will be released! So, in between marking My Trailing Vines quilt I decided to cut the sashing and cornerstone blocks. Well of course, than I had to put the first months blocks together. You guessed it, I have now finished sewing 5 months worth of blocks. I think I will still wait to sew each monthly section together because it will be easier to store these without wrinkling them up if the are smaller units. Hopefully tomorrow I can stitch the last two months together. I told myself once they are completed I really need to focus on getting My Trailing Vines basted. I really really want to start hand quilting it this weekend.
I am so loving the simplicity and scrappiness of this quilt. It has a real farmhouse look don't you think? Looking forward to downloading the next blocks and getting My Trailing Vines basted! Funny how when fall arrives, I always get into a quilting mood!

I love this quilt too. And you're right, it has a real homey feel to it. I love the sparkle that comes because of your fabric placement in that green basket.
ReplyDeleteThanks, that was a doozer of a block!
DeleteYour blocks look wonderful! I haven't made a final decision on the sashing fabric for my blocks yet but I do have my fabric picked for the cornerstones. I am still woefully behind on making my blocks!
ReplyDeleteI now wish I had all of the blocks done cause sewing it together has been a lot of fun.
DeleteIt does look very cozy and farmhouse like. Loving that sashing choice with the red!
ReplyDeleteI agree the sashing with the red cornerstones really anchor all the different scraps I am using.
DeleteLooking very good. I like the choice of sashing fabric that you are using.
ReplyDeleteThanks, the sashing fabric is similar to what the original had and I think it really helps bring all those scraps together.
DeleteYour blocks look lovely and I think you're doing a good job of keeping up. Happy Stitching!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I ordered new glasses today too bad they don't come in until the 9th. I hope doesn't take me too long to adjust to them.
DeleteVery nice!
