I am happy to say that I have all 13 blocks from the Lets Sew Quilt Along sewn together!
Before the deadline of September 23rd!
My version is 65″ x 67″…a pretty good size…not so much a wall hanging. I’ve taken an indoor photo so you can get an idea of how big it is.
I made a big cutting error when I cut more of the black and white tiles. I cut them bigger than the size that I had planned for.
I was in a hurry. I am absolutely sure that had nothing to do with the error!
I imagined Tim Gunn looking over my shoulder.
Keep calm and carry on.
Make it work.
I think I might need lime around the outside. I may be making one more border. But that is not happening anytime soon.
I have a week off from work, and I am so looking forward to taking a trip!

Oh what a slam dunk finish! I bet by the time you come back from your vacay, you’ll know exactly what to do about that border (if a lime border is necessary or not)…and you’ll be refreshed enough to enjoy the completion of this project!
Have fun.

I am definitely thinking some color around the outside would be nice. The quilt is already larger than I expected, so what is one more border? Ha, ha!

A stripe would be cool, Kathy! But I don’t want to shop anywhere for fabric, except my own stash. I’ll see what I have after the vacation. 🙂

It looks wonderful, a lime green flange with a black binding might look good, just a suggestion 🙂 Enjoy your holiday!

That looks amazing. I couldn’t imagine how the blocks would go together when you showed them individually.
