I have not posted the last couple of classes as they were so busy I justed didn't get chance to take any photos. However on the Saturday class Carmen popped in with her log cabin quilt finally finished, which I managed to take pictures.
The centre squares were all crossed stitched.
I have been preparing the project for this Saturday's all day workshop - New York Beauty, foundation pieced.
Not a great lover of paper-piecing, all that paper to tear at the end and also I personally find it hard to see when aligning the fabric up, so I like to use Vilene sew-in light weight interfacing which enables me to see what is going on and also I don't need to take it out once the block is sewn together. So all being well on Saturday, as it is an all day class I will hopefully get a chance to take some photos, fingers crossed.
Tomorrow I hope to show what I have prepared for the girls to do next Wednesday!
That's a great New York Beauty, is it from the book or that free site we used in the Quilt Cave? Paper piecing has it's benefits eh... I love all the points to be very 'pointy'! Hope the ladies enjoy it too.
ReplyDeleteWell... The quilt came out great, after almost a year and a whole lot of classes to finish... talk about TEAM work! Sure you will never want to look at corner stars again after this one, right?
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention... and Angela will understand this feeling... this was probably the ONE project that almost made you cry, right?... No we move onto the TIES.... Let´s see what that will bring....
