Hourly Progress


Here is the result of hours of pleasure...... Judy does the best directions. I have great results following her patterns. They are easy to follow. She tells you which way to press the seams. She allows for the blocks to be trimmed to size so that you always have the right size to work with. Here are the components of the star blocks, all ready to assemble.





And here is the first two blocks to roll off the assembly line. As you can see, I did the center of my block a bit differently. I did lay out the star on both fabrics, but trust me, this was the right choice. They are turning out so well. Our oldest grandson just moved into his own home and this might be just the thing for him. It seems masculine enough right now but time will tell.

Your star block looks lovely Suze and I am sure a young male will like the quilt :-)

I am soooo slooow today. Maybe I should prep an applique block too ? I am behind, but if I do some prepping I will catch up soon.

All I can say is WOW! I know Samuel will be pleased. Jr. thinks the quilt you made for DD (the pink and yellow) is great. He brought it up himself. Who would have thunk it??
