It's a week of little bits of this and that. I have made some progress on Summer Baskets.
As you can see, all nine basket blocks are done, but I'm thinking I should do the fused flowers before I assemble the center. What do you think? I have made all four first inner pieced borders.
The second narrow border of the print has been cut, but I hesitate cutting it to length until I have an exact measurement. The third pieced border is in process. It has large triangles that will touch that narrow border. Those are supposed to be cream but I'm thinking about using the print so those have not been cut. I started cutting some of the fused flowers yesterday and hope to get one finished today.
I also finished the last four Tumbling Triangles blocks ...
... and I have selected the setting fabric.
This project has gone back into the box to be assembled at the next retreat in mid-April.
I really need to get back to the church project, though, and since rain is preventing any outside work today, I have no more excuses ...
Yes, add the flowers to the blocks first. That way if the applique on one doesn't turn out to your liking you don't have to unstitch a block from an assembled top.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your flowers in your baskets. Those blocks are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWow! You made quick work of those blocks and borders, Libby!!
ReplyDeleteIs tumbling triangles your design? I’m looking forward to seeing it completed
ReplyDeleteBacktracking Libby. Love that toile piece you got in the mail and the two projects you are considering, Red 'n Butter was it, so pretty! I can see why you are tempted by the pretty fabric and endless (it seems) equally gorgeous patterns. Meanwhile, I do love these tumbling triangles as well.
ReplyDeleteAnd you have growth in your garden! I will look up lenten roses. We are in the middle of a rain and wind storm, not serious, but will take away the last of the snow. Fingers crossed no more for this season.
Wow, you are speedy! I agree, adding the fused flowers before adding the borders might be easier. I love your Tumbling Triangles project. Might have to try that pattern sometime.
