One more report for Darla's March A Long, over at Scientific Quilter. Her challenge is to do something quilty for at least 15 minutes a day throughout the month of March. Here's what I worked on this week.
Sunday:
I started quilting Sand and Sea Glass.
Monday:
Still quilting (I'm really slow).
Tuesday:
I pulled out this quilt.
I started this, ohhh, about 6 or 7 years ago. The pattern is called Aqua Stars. I had it on my Finish-A-Long list for most of last year, and didn't do any more than take this photo. But, it is time to get this DONE! It has a piano key border, and I started sewing that together.
Wednesday:
Sewed more piano keys.
Thursday:
Switched it up today - back to quilting Sand and Sea Glass.
Friday
I finished the Aqua Stars top! Yay! The border was a bit of a challenge. I had to fudge a bit to make sure the piano keys fit evenly. But, it worked out. No waving borders!
Saturday:
I thought I'd check out Craftsy today, and lo and behold - they had the April BOM block up already. So, I had no choice but to work on that block. This one was more challenging, with templates and curved piecing. I have done both before, so it didn't scare me. And Laura had some very good tips. Here is the block:
