I have been following the Just Take 2 BOM, and working along trying really hard to keep up, Last week I dedicated a few days to finish the first quarter. This is what I have ended up with.
Now if you are also making this you will see that there are a couple of blocks in here that should not be, that is because I became frustrated with what I had made and decided that it was just not good enough and so I made my own. It is the hand piecing that is not working for me.
Anyway........ I am happy with what I have made, the feathered star especially and the applique one in the bottom right hand corner (which by the way I did with vliesofix and blanket stitch on the machine)
This one is certainly testing my staying power, and since I have finished this quarter there has been new blocks put up, which I cant start because my printer is out of ink. This is a very good excuse and I am sticking to it.

I have been really slack with posting what I have been doing
But I have not been idle.
During the first few weeks of this year I became a pattern tester for Arbee Desighs Ltd. Check them out here.
And this one is called "Star Medallion" .
The original pattern was made with Floral Fabric, but I was anxious to get started and I did not have enough floral to get the repeats so used the fishy one instead.
Unfortunately neither of them is quilted yet

This one is called Star Crossed, it is foundation Pieced, But once I got the hang of it, it progressed easily.
