I've finished 3 more blocks for my Crazy Basket Case Lap Quilt.
I still have 2 more blocks to finish in order to complete a total of 20 blocks.
Despite that fact, I've started assembling the rows 1-3. And, wouldn't you know it...there were some odd sized blocks in row 2 because of the bigger basket embroidery transfers I used and so I miscalculated the sizes of the other blocks needed for that row. So, now I need to make a little 4 inch CQ strip for filler. I'm going to feather stitch along the seams where the blocks join. Then, I haven't quite figured out if I'm going to tie or hand quilt it. Decisions, decisions...
And, I've got 2.5 blocks already completed for my CQJP 2013 lap quilt. I figure I need 20 blocks again so I'm going to try to make 2 per month. I'll show that project Jan 1. Today I'm linking up to Design Wall Monday at Patchwork Times. where everyone shows off what they are working on.
This is looking good!
ReplyDeleteYour work is just gorgeous! I can't stop looking at it...
ReplyDeleteCathy,
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see it all finished up. It is just gorgeous!
I love the embroidery you use in your crazy quilting - it's what brought me over from the CQJP2012 blog pages. These baskets are the best!
