With apologies to Kelly, I am making the crossroads blocks differently from the pattern. My luggage tag units are very wonky….I’m sure if I’d been in Kelly’s class they would be perfect. Anyway, sewing them together with the white corners to the middle looked awful so I sewed them white corners out as it hides my wonky blocks better.
I finished the sashing blocks & am getting them sewn to the star & crossroads blocks. Rows of star blocks alternated with crossroads blocks will go between these units if you can picture it, lol.
I added another cheddar block so there are now seven. I labeled them as they are not interchangeable due to the way the seams are ironed.
That is one thing I love about Bonnie Hunter’s patterns, she provides ironing instructions so all units nest or, rarely, are ironed open. And speaking of Bonnie’s quilts, I only have 22 more Birthday Girl blocks left to sew 😀. And I have 19 of the up & the down hill Scrappy Mountain Majesty blocks sewn. So progress on four projects!
Happy Sewing, Cherie
You have been busy, Cherie! All of your blocks look great. The up and down hill blocks have some nice points!!
ReplyDeleteSometimes you just have to adjust and move on. I think the blocks look better with the white on the outside rather than in the middle.
