Spanish Bond Raggedy Brick Lap Quilt
duh:
Don't the names of these quilts go on forever?
These are the ones that you cut the front the back in rectangles and squares and then but the batting 2 inches smaller then quilt all the bits together and then sew them raw edges out with a 1 inch seam. These seem to go quickly although with all the miss cuts I had at the beginning I was getting frustrated.
I'm using all plaids and home spuns this time. Trying for a masculine look.
So far all 16 squares are cut out and sandwiched and 4 of them are quilted. Then all 64 of the rectangular batting pieces are cut out and 18 of the 128 fabric pieces that I need to cut are done.
Wish me luck.
Tina:
Good luck, Tammy.
duh:
It's moving right along. I got a lot more cut and am ready to iron the next fabric for the next cut and I did probably another 4 of the squares as far as quilting. I'm liking the results so far.
duh:
8 pieces cut for a total of 48 out of 128. 2 more squares quilted for a total of 9 out of 16. Progress. I really hoped I could move faster without sacrificing quality. But sewing is not my forte and that remains true. I'm glad my daughter can sew.
Tina:
Is that hand sewing that gets you, Tammy? I sure have a problem with that part of any project.
