The timing allowed me to spend a few hours sewing. I wasn&#8217;t expecting any sewing time and was very pleased. As I am getting towards the top, the piece really looks more and more like something.<\/p>\n<p>I am not sure I am a huge fan of the green (feather) diagonal line, on the right towards the middle, that was formed when I pieced those rows. I am not, however, unpicking. I do like the trails the green solid has made and I am eager to get those sections on the design wall so I can finish working on the final width and layout.<\/p>\n<p>I know I was pretty ambivalent after making the blocks for this piece. I am really interested in how the quilt top is turning out. It is taking a lot of time and work. However, the challenge is really working my brain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know I just wrote about my progress on The Peacock a few days ago, but I have made more progress and I am pretty excited.
