Blocks

This week I have finally finished 'Stacking and Slashing' my "Marmalade Maze blocks. All 16 blocks are all together and quilted. The quilting seemed to take forever averaging an hour of quilting per block. I am happy with the way they look although there is a bit too much black for my liking. At the next lesson on Wednesday evening we will be cutting the blocks to size then stitching together then the binding. I have never made a quilt as you go before so it a new learning curve for me. These are the 16 blocks all laid out on the floor getting ready for numbering each block for each row.

Bobbin thought this was the best thing, nice comfy quilted blocks to lie around on.

Now it is time to hide under the blocks......

Now that I have made a mess of the layout I can relax.....
