the second week of the year is almost gone already!!
And, it's still 'Igloo cold' here in central Ohio.
I had a break from my quilting,
as I got to keep the grand-kiddos aka: the little guys
while Sonnyboy and his beautiful wife-y had the chance to go to
the National College Football Championship Game in Texas.
Way to go Ohio State Buckeyes!!
It was a wonderful Sunday, Monday, Tuesday for me.
But now I know why the Good Lord has the young having babies!
Man-O-Man am I bushed!!!
They are good grand-kiddos -
a three year old and a molar-teething one year old that's walking
kept me on my toes (and out of sleep :)!
I am so blessed that they live close and love to come to GrandmaB's!
And Sweetie and I were able to watch the final playoff game from our easy-chairs after grand-kiddos went beddy-bye.
Anyway, what all that means is that my in-progress quilting project - Flags of the American Revolution, got stacked and piled onto the sewing table in my quilt studio (aka: spare room, aka: Sonnyboy's old bedroom).
Here's the layout of blocks before said stacking and piling:
I'm going with 'I'm still auditioning fabric colors'. :)
Note: the folded fabrics on top of some blocks?
That is the backing fabric for each block.
Yes, each block's backing,
as I've decided to do this quilt in the hot-pad method,
with knife-edged sides
(more on that later).
Now that the grand-kiddos are back home with their parents
and I've had a nap,
I've unstacked the previously stacked and piled project
to work on the rest of this week.
But maybe with another nap scheduled in.
Happy Tuesday and Happy Stitching!
You have all the parts about ready to put together. The quilt looks very good. I am not going to be able to work on mine until next week.
ReplyDeletewinter naps are the best! Your quilt looks great. Glad you had a nice visit with the grandkids even if you are tuckered out
