\nI started work on the back of the Nosegay on Sunday. This is how far as I got – a strip approximately 5ft by 2ft. UGH! I cursed the size of this quilt the entire time. Something about this piece makes it seem so much harder. Still, I am determined to soldier and use up those 1930s fabrics. I am hoping that some miracle will make it go faster this weekend. Perhaps a change of attitude?<\/p>\n

\nThe fun thing I did on Monday was finish blocks 5 & 6 for the Pineapple. I have been slowly adding strips in between working on the backs of various quilts and other projects. A little work goes a long way.<\/p>\n

\nI couldn’t resist setting them all together and taking a photo. I worried about the corners being too close in color, but I think they look OK. I have since moved the top middle block 90 degrees, but left it in the same spot and I am happy with it.<\/p>\n

\nI finished another one of the Cross Blocks on Monday at Craft Night. I probably should not have put the two yellows together, but I did. After I make a few more blocks, I will look at the effect and see if want to take the second yellow piece off.<\/p>\n

\nI decided to take Laume’s advice and do the scrappy look like she suggested in Cross Block Redux<\/a>. This means that I have more flexibility in using and placing fabrics, which is a great relief. Whatever I do, these two blocks need to be far apart in the quilt. That stripe is very noticeable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
