A front is coming through today (Wednesday) with temperatures dropping by 40 degrees.
It was overcast both Monday and Tuesday evenings. We're not going to see the Great Conjunction (Jupiter and Saturn).

Though I have yards of CW repro fabric I don't have long pieces for borders, at least not in a print that I though worked with these blocks. At breakfast I had a design epiphany. (Epiphanies are appropriate for the Christmas season, right?)
Here's how it looked at the end of the evening.
I made 100+ HSTs that are 3" unfinished.

Hi Nann! Looks good! I am busting CW repros too.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a great place to take a walk, and a great way to take a mini vacation! Those HSTs look wonderful with those blocks.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the HSTs!
ReplyDeletewowza...that border kicks it up several notches....awesome nann!
ReplyDeleteThose churn dash blocks look fabulous with 9-patches nestled inside! Thanks for sharing your nature walk photos, too. It's so interesting to get a glimpse of another part of the country, especially having been stuck so close to home for so long.
ReplyDeleteWow those blocks are pretty! Such a lovely quilt in the making! Thanks for sharing on Wednesday Wait Loss.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful walks you take! And hooray for epiphanies. Pieced borders are my favorite because I rarely have enough length for plain ones. Love the HSTs.
ReplyDeleteWe were able to see the Great Conjunction although I thought it might cloud over. I see why our forebears looked at the sky. So much to see, especially away from city lights.
Merry Christmas.
