Making a mess -


Since I last showed you the 92 LHQSQ blocks on the wall -

There has been a slight change in plans - ;))

I had said that the NEXT four were all cut and kitted -

And that is partly true -

They ARE all cut and kitted -

But they will not be the NEXT four blocks -

They will be the LAST four - ;))

Instead - the NEXT three blocks -

Will be from my bloggy buddy - KatieM’s -

Mystery Quilt - Four Corners - HERE - ;))

She graciously gave me permission to re-size them -

And to use them in my LHQSQ -

Thanks, Katie!! - ;))

These blocks use “units” that I have made before -

And look to me like variations of Block #92 - Tiramisu -

So I thought that they would fit in very nicely -

As Blocks #93 - 94 - and 95 -

And they do - ;))

So I made some HST and some 4-patches -


Some geese -


Got the “units” sewn -


And - while I was at it -

I made a mess to clean up later - ;))




Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

    Look at all those little geese units. My Sew Fest ladies were not happy to do so many (160). I'm honored that you're including those blocks in your quilt..

      Yeah - those little geese have been keeping me busy this week- ;)) I figured that they wouldn't be too bad if I did them assembly-line style and had the FPP "chunks" pre-cut. I was right - it wasn't hard - it was just time-consuming with so many of them. The best part was getting them ALL done for all three blocks at the same time - ;))

      Thanks for giving me permission to use your blocks - AND for supplying the "medium" fabric in our last "trade" - ;))

      Thanks, Linda - it does feel good to be so close to the "finish" line - ;))

    I love that! Made a mess to clean up later. Woman after my own heart if you use the philosophy that you do not live to clean, tidy is good enough AND you have a husband who does not mind vacuuming. Hooray for being in the home stretch!

      Haha - I'm really good at making messes - and tidy IS good enough for me. My philosophy is that "cluttered" is NOT "dirty" - they are two entirely different things - ;))

    Greetings from the queen of clutter ... not dirt, that is true!
    I may be slower sewing, but I can make messes just as fast.
