My accomplishments this week:
* 128 Flying Geese for Easy Street, Step 2. I usually use the cut-off corner method for FG. This time I am following Bonnie's directions as well has her pattern so I used the EZ and Companion Angle rulers for these geese. Despite what I consider to be careful cutting and sewing, I had a dozen under-sized units and I had to trim a few others. Practice makes perfect!
* Five potholders that will be Christmas gifts. The block is an Ohio Star variation -- 9" finished. It was fun to choose different Christmas fabrics for each one. I used Insul-Brite and a piece of batting inside.
* Blue/brown D9P blocks assembled and bordered. The flimsy is about 78 x 78.

ReplyDeleteLove the pot holders I am going to make some for my grandson he's five and wants an easy bake oven for christmas
ReplyDeleteWow! You're the energizer bunny! I won't even say how many geese are still waiting in the wings! Lookin good!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen a D9P on point before, I really like that. I use the D9P for kids comfort quilts cuz they are so easy: I may try that on point for the next one, just to vary it a bit. Thanks. By the way, great job on your Easy Street. I will be done with Step 2 today.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the potholders!
