My Hour a Day Quilt


I did complete all of my blocks for the Hour a Day Quilt. Tomorrow morning I will cut the fabric for the sashing and cornerstones for each block and with the help of the Duchess I will get them sewn on. I will also get out a magnifier and try to see the print in the tiny book that came with her. She might need a drop of oil and I do want her running smoothly. I am going to use a solid strip of deep rose with cornerstones for my blocks. The fabric will look so much better on my bed in quilt form than it does in a stack in my studio.

The solid strip works, its very pretty with your block. And yes, it will definitely be prettier on your bed than in your stash!

Lovely blocks Suze :-) This will make a nice quilt. I will do some sewing now. Are you sewing today ?

This is such beautiful fabric and looks so pretty in these blocks. I like that you've used just one fabric for the block borders. It makes yours look very elegant. Unlike my totally scrappy one which is anything but. :-)
