I did spend some time last week checking my strip bins and ironing and stacking my fabrics that I plan to use when I get to that point. (Hey, I had the iron on. LOL.)
I got another 5% of step one done as Leaders and Enders... over the last week, and I couldn't help myself from cutting some triangles when I discovered some strips that were already cut in the colors I'm using. I still had the iron out, along with the spray starch, and cut what I could for step 2. I stitched up a handful, (about 5%) and pressed them to check my accuracy. They will also be used as Leaders and Enders as I work on Jamestown Landing when I'm done with the quilting foot.
My steps 1 and step 2 playing together for a brief moment.
This is "Warm Winter Wishes". It is quilt number 10 that I'm finishing. This was a Row Robin on the internet with my Quilting Sisters. I chose the theme, and did the applique row with the houses, the checkerboard rows, and the piano key borders. The other rows were done by members of the group.
I also pieced and attached the borders to the following QOV I was working on on our Sew Day. Some other sewists completed the center portion, but I was assigned the borders. I struggled with the crowded space I was using, and decided to bring it home and finish it in a day, rather than over the next 5 months. The pattern is called "Hurrah" by Minnick and Simspon.
I am linking up to Bonnie Hunter's Linky party for step 2. Bonnie's Linky Party Week 2
