So feel free to join along. Just go to the above link and get started. I will caution you that on lesson 2 you must cut your long strips first before cutting out your 72 - 3 inch squares; ask me why I am warning you!!
A blog about sewing and food. Originally this blog was to be a chronicle of my sewing projects but then I realized one does not live by sewing alone.
About Me
- Jul
- Sewing and cooking are two of my favorite things. In the past, I often found myself searching for pictures and details of projects I have done, without success. So I decided to start documenting my creations. Then my son suggested I add my recipes to the blog so that they are documented also.

A Quilt ALong
So I have decided to do my first quilt along. It is being displayed at McCalls Quilting. Here is a pic of their sample. It consists of 12 lessons in 12 weeks and has a video and a corresponding printable lesson. It consists of 8 different kind of blocks so there is a lot to learn.
Yes it is very pretty in pastels but I am not really a pastel kind of gal so I have chosen a different palette.

looks like an ambitious project...another similar to hoop sisters?
ReplyDeleteYes ambitious indeed. Lots of new techniques to learn. Currently working on lesson 2; making 144 half square triangle units.
