Design Wall Monday - 11/9/15
DESIGN WALL MONDAY -
Check out all of us who link up with Judy L. -
At Patchwork Times on Mondays.
We have some awesome stuff on our walls!
Well, THEY do - ME - not so much sometimes - ;))
===
On my wall today -
The same old Quarter Log Cabin Blocks -
Using a jelly roll from my stash -
And a pattern by Liz Katsuro at Jelly Roll Fabrics - HERE - ;))
And it's coming together nicely - ;))
This quilt top has 80 blocks - 8 x 10 -
And is on the wall sideways -
So you see 8 rows of 10 - ;))
As most of you already know -
I don't sew my quilt tops in "rows" -
I sew them into "twosies" -
Then "foursies" -
Then "eightsies" -
Etc. - ;))
The photo above is my wall -
When I got to four rows/sections of 8 - 8 - and 4 - ;))
Then I sewed the top row/sections to the second row/sections -
To make 16 - 16 - and 8 -
Then the third row/sections to the fourth row/sections -
To make another 16 - 16 - and 8 - ;))
Next I'll make sets of 32 - 32 - and 16 -
Then sew those three sections together -
Just like sewing a block - ;))
And -
Until I get to those last two seams -
I won't have to sew -
Or have to match the seams -
On more than FOUR blocks -
At a time - ;))
Which - in my mind -
Beats having to match TEN blocks -
And all of their seams -
EIGHT times - ;))
Or - EIGHT blocks -
And all of their seams -
TEN times - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
I may have to try that method..... especially on a larger quilt!
ReplyDeleteTry it, Katie - let me know what you think - ;))
