Since the backing fabric I ordered arrived, I'm pretty excited to start making a batting (sewing together the big hunks) so I can get busy quilting the next quilt. Oh boy do I have a plan cooking up in my head.
Speaking of batting, I added to my stack of quilt as you go blocks. This helps empty out one bag of small batting scraps and lots of strings from the bin. I have 30 blocks done, 18 to go.
Sunday found me making a stack of 31 little string blocks. Sometimes I get started on these and forget to stop. I settled in for some TV watching and some de-papering.
I also spent some time cutting the last 2 rosettes for block 7 of Millefiore. I'm using scraps from Allietare. Next for this quilt will be to join the rosettes I have complete so I can figure out which colors to use on the remaining rosettes.
See what other quilters are working on at Patchwork Times.

No scrap left unused at your house. I have a pile I need to whittle down. But the NEW project & Chocolate Easter Eggs are calling me. I have a helper today.
Great machine quilting project. Looks like a great ruler system. I still haven't figured it out though, need to see if there is a video to see if it's something I "need". I stared at my strings and they multiplied more this weekend but that is as far as I got!
Love that little block. I've got a ton of bonus triangles, maybe I will use them to make one of my own!
