My main project right now is joining the 100 octagon blocks. I haven’t been doing much sewing recently – but I did manage to join them into 5 rows of 20 blocks – only 4 more seams to go! I already have the fabric for the inner border, the outer border and the backing. This is going to be my entry in Quitfest Jacksonville 2012. Maybe another one too (Alabama Beauty or Patchwork Of The Crosses) if I can get my act together.
I’d almost forgotten how many projects I have in the works. Most of them have the fabric selected – awaiting printing and cutting.
The 25 completed Patchwork Of The Crosses blocks aren’t up on the wall – I am trying not to handle them anymore than necessary because the background is white – aside from the fact that they wouldn’t fit!
Here is a close up of the Drunkard’s Path blocks. Ten blocks down 90 more to go! It’s going to be 10 blocks by 10 blocks – just like the octagons. This was an experiment – I wanted to use up lots of 5″ charm squares of hand dyes and Kaffes. I really like it – it’s also one of my husband David’s favorites – but he’s color blind (red/green.) Humm… wonder what that means?
















Carol, Feliz Navidad!!!
The colors/patterns in your Drunkard’s path are kaleidoscopic! Fabulous!
Que bueno que regresó postando ese lindo trabajo! Como siempre, lindo, bien colorido.
Aprovecho para desearle una Feliz Navidad y un Año Nuevo pleno de alegrias y felicidad. Un abz, julia
Lovely to read a post from you! I love all your lovely, bright blocks, just the thing to brighten a dreary December!
I love your colors. All you work is so colorful and inspring. I also have many projects going at the same time and I like that. Everyday, I work on something different. Good luck In Jacksonville.
Your design wall is SO NEAT–and so full! I think my favorite so far is your Alabama Beauty. But that might only be because there is not room for POTC right now.
You always have great eye candy for us, Carol. I love them all, but especially the Drunkard’s Path! Hugs, Linda & Monkey
I love your design wall! Nice and big. But even more I love what is on the wall! Fabulous!
Nice to read your blog again. I’ve missed it. I really LOVE your drunkards path. Great way to use up 5″ charms.
