I know it is true - I have seen it again -fabrics breeds by cell dividing !
Remember, I thought I would run out of purple fabrics of a certain shade.
Well, as you understand, I did not, and I still have enough for the binding + some more.
Thanks for all the generous offers to send me more purple :-)
The 56 purple and white blocks are done and out on the floor, but it is to dark to take a photo just now.
I have joined the blocks in sections of 4 blocks, and if any of you are math wizes, you will notice it does not add up, so there are 12 sections of 4 blocks and one row of single blocks.
Many seams to match and a lot of work to do yet.
I will quilt this quilt in sections too, as I did DD2's quilt.
This is my goal for the upcoming week.
Prolonging June one extra week did not finish more on my goal list,
but made me rethink it a bit.
The applique block will be archived for now - not really tickles me as it is at the moment.
Time to call it a day here - more tomorrow.
And scraps breed faster than anything else - I swear they do!
ReplyDeletegood to not run out of purple...you put this quilt together pretty fast I think!
ReplyDeleteBreaking the quilt into manageable pieces for quilting is an excellent idea when you are trying to work on such a large project.
ReplyDeleteMy husband always laughs about how we can sew the tiny pieces back together to make quilts....have fun
ReplyDeleteGood nite--
Melanie
Glad you had plenty of purple. Is this cell division because of the clean air in Norway?
ReplyDeleteI wish it WOULD breed and divide sometimes, especially batting ... lol
ReplyDeleteYAY for having enough purple!
ReplyDeleteMy fabric breeds also, but I do have quite a bit of "reproduction fabric"! Love the purple quilt! Also your red and white insane blocks are great! Regarding your trade idea: E-mail me at patchalotpatterns@yahoo.com and I would love to send you some red. Thanks for the offer!
