Squirrel's Batik Sister - First block -
Is sashed on the right side and the bottom - ;))
On this one (and the Brother) I started with the block in the bottom right corner -
Sashed the right side - then the bottom -
The rest of the blocks are stacked on my cutting table -
In order according to my little sketch - ;))
I have a sketch with the blocks and sashing and cornerstones all labeled -
So I put them all on the wall according to the sketch -
Flipped the side sashings to the blocks - pinned them right sides together -
Took them off the wall and added them to the pile -
With the first block on the bottom -
And the last block on the top -
That way I can start in the bottom right corner -
And make my way to the top two blocks -
Which need the extra sashing on the top and far left side - ;))
I also pinned the labeled cornerstones to the bottom sashings -
Stitched them together -
And made a pile of those - on my ironing board -
So I can grab the one I need - according to my sketch -
And stitch it to the bottom of the block -
After I sew on the side sashing - ;))
I'm trying to keep BOB quiet -
Because she still wants to chase those other Squirrels -
So I let her and her CDO draw the sketch -
And label the pieces -
And make sure I kept them in order - LOL - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

Yeah, I pin letters and numbers so I get them all in the right place. I love the way that pink works on this second one as well.
I am surprised at how the pink makes the blocks sparkle. But, it certainly does. I am not so organized - which could explain why some of my quilts turn out "different."
Yay for sisters lol. Looking really pretty!
I'm curious about your squirrels...now that I know how this one is going...I'm as bad as BOB...
Take it easy BOB...she's almost finished. This is going to be another nice one.
