Geesh. This quilt feels like it is taking me forever. I thought it was supposed to be quick! Everyone is either lying about the speed of putting this together or else I am just very, very slow. I have faith in humanity so it really must be me and the fact that I am spending at least half of my limited free time reading The Game of Thrones (oh my god so good) and another one quarter of it planning the next quilt I want to make. You know, because I don't already have four quilts in progress and I have so much free time. Right.
LOL at least you are enjoying the process. Your quilt is coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty with the pinks and purples:):)
ReplyDeleteI think this is a gorgeous collection of blocks--very colorful. I found this TAL project to be very slow in the beginning too. I gained speed towards the end, mostly because I started sewing in stages rather than sewing blocks--I'd sew my six strips together, and not get up from the sewing machine, until I had made all of the six-strip sets I needed. Then I ironed and made all the tubes. And then I cut and picked and reassembled each block one at a time. Keep chugging. The TAL is so worth it, I promise.
ReplyDeleteIt is looking great! I love the combination of fabrics you have chosen :)
ReplyDeletequilters are really good at starting new projects. i think it's what keeps it fun and fresh for those of us who can't buckle down all the way to a finish but still love to quilt! it's okay. =)
ReplyDeleteif you are just slow, so am i! every time i think i'm getting faster, i'm not. but the quilts are slowly building up after 3 years, so it's getting a lot more satisfying. i'm just me, at my speed, and it's working out eventually!
It will be oh so pretty when it is done.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors in your blocks.
This quilt is beautiful! I love the fabrics, and whether fast or slow, I'm sure it will be worth it!
