This is the stack after I ironed. I took LesQuilts advice and turned my computer onto hulu and watched 3 episodes of Castle so I could get my ironing and squaring done.
Next is the stack after I squared them up and as you can see there is the pile of trimings. It took about 3 hours to do all that and my knees hurt after standing in one spot for that long. I should have taken a break but I was committed to getting them done; do or die.
I plan on putting the blocks together today as soon as I do a little house cleaning. Not much but just a little mind you like floors and bathrooms, enough so I dont feel like I am living in a pig pen.
(there are days I hate computers, they are so frustrating, I don't know how I got underlining, I think I somehow linked to one of the pictures, and there isn't a button to undo it at the top, so I guess I must need to really clean, Ha, it has been awhile)
I am having a TADAH moment. The hard part is done and the fun part is to come. I love putting the blocks together and seeing the quilt come alive. All the tedium is worth the end creation. It always amazes me how beautiful they turn out and I have to marvel and ask myself, DID I DO THAT?.
That is why you have been ignoring me on messenger....shame on you...don't you know it is all about me??? Glad you got alot done...don't you just love hulu?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting it done!
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteGlad the suggestion helped, they look great! Looking forward to seeing the top all together!
Take care, Leslie
I can't wait to see the progress tomorrow. Isn't it a shame that we don't have a cleaning fairy that will come in and take care of all of that so we can play????
