Finally I was back at the sewing machine and have something to show you. I have been working away at completing the 100" x 100" broken dishes quilt. Here at the cabin this week, I am taking long walks in the woods with Penny Lane, and sewing rows of blocks/columns/pieces of blocks. Here are three pictures of this week's assembly line progress:
The first picture is of a few blocks laid out on an old metal school lunch tray.
Second picture is more newly made broken dishes blocks. Third picture is a "design wall" of a rolled up rug, as the rubber backing helps hold the pieces in place until I sew them.
I thought I had made all of the broken dishes blocks for this quilt, but now that I'm on the bottom 20" x 100" section, I found that I am short 28 red ones and 38 green ones. But the good news is that I've made so many of them for this quilt, that making more is a breeze. The end is near.
