Another nice easy pieced block this week for Aves - although it still had 57 pieces to include within its 6 1/2" square!
I can see now that I could have made a better fabric choice for what became the central star - the 'bookbinder' fabric which I love should have been swapped for something with a smaller pattern. Never mind - its all a learning process!
It gave me plenty of time to work on my other current quilting project - which needed 50 quarter square triangle blocks.
Which need to be added to 50 plain fabric blocks. I love a bit of chain piecing!
Soon the quilt top will be made and I'll turn my attention to the 20" cushion front for the quillow.
Enjoying the simple repetitive sewing.
I've also used a few of the scraps from the quilt to make other projects - covered notebooks and tissue holders. More simple sewing, but very satisfying to be able to give homemade gifts away!
That’s going to be a lovely calming quilt. Hope little miss 13 (!) had a great birthday xx
