A Quilt Along – Page 12 – Quilting my way through life!

Day 2 blocks are complete.

Block 16 by Cotton Way.

Block 20 by Zen Chic.

Block 28 by Bunny Hill.

The instructions for Anne’s baskets tell you to make the handles with your favorite bias method.

I used these,

These bias bars are worth their weight in gold!

I cut and made two short handles of each color instead of cutting one long bias piece.

I didn’t have to cut a long bias chunk out of my 1/2 yard of fabric that way,

and it’s easier to work with two short pieces instead of one long one.

Are you sewing yet???

Until next time,

Moda Signature Quilt Along

Have your heard about Moda’s Signature Quilt along?

I hadn’t until I decided to bop on over to Moda Lissa’s blog yesterday for no apparent reason.

I decided it must be Kismet…

and so I printed out the 3 block instructions for the day…

decided on a fat 1/4 bundle that I’d bought at Paducah ??? years ago…

that actually was a 1/2 yard bundle, but it was so long ago I had forgotten…

Today I started sewing…

Basic Grey Block #22.

There are 3, 9″ blocks each day for 10 days; this week and next, no weekends.

So, 30 blocks in all. That’s a 5 x 6 setting. 45″ x 54″ without sashing or borders.

Not sure how long I’ll last, but I couldn’t resist!

How about you???

Until next time,

Susan
