What a great way to end the year and ring in the new! Early Tuesday morning while still in my jammies and drinking coffee, Bonnie surprised us with Part 8 of the Old Town Mystery Quilt. Woohoo! I made Mr. Podunk's breakfast. Then did some chores and by noonish I was still in my jammies and cutting the fabrics for part 8.
Bonnie gave several options for making the flying geese blocks. I chose to use Bonnie's Essential Triangle ruler since I would be cutting from smaller pieces of scrap fabrics.
I sorted and cut fabric for hours...with breaks for food and resting the old lady back. By 11:57pm my blocks were finished! It looks like there are only a few, but we had to make matching sets. So, each one of these has a few more with the same fabric placement.
Today's plan:
Stitch up half square triangles from the scrap triangles made while making this quilt.
The dark blue fabric is going to look great with the aqua fabric, happy stitching! What a great way to see the new year in, sewing!
ReplyDeleteI love looking at each fabric that youre putting into Old Town! And sounds like a great way to start '25!! Happy New Year!
