Frolic! center’s last seam<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Today would be Tax Day, but it isn’t and I am pretty sure I don’t need to go into why.<\/p>\n

This is the last seam. I had to take a photo, because I feel like this top has been such an effort.<\/p>\n

\"Frolic!<\/a>
Frolic! Center Together<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Yes, the top is together.<\/p>\n

Finally! Seriously, I feel like this center took for-freaking-ever!<\/p>\n

As I said last week<\/a>, I have a long way to go before I can get it to Colleen, but this is major progress. I feel like I have accomplished something.<\/p>\n

My friend Cyndi retired (even though she is about 35!) just before the shelter-in-place order and she is going to town on her UFOs<\/a>. She is the rockstar<\/a> who finished her UCAB already.<\/p>\n

\"Frolic!<\/a>
Frolic! Secondary Block<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I think I might need to do something with the secondary blocks\/setting blocks. They really look good sewn together. The bad part is that the block is made up of the edges of the main blocks. I could include the pieces on the edges of another block. I just have to figure out how to do it.<\/p>\n

I liked this top before I started sewing it together, but I like it so much more now. Despite my whining, I think it looks great. I am constantly amazed how sewing the blocks together can change the look.<\/p>\n

Someone asked me why I just don’t put it away and work on something else. Yes, I have been *almost* miserable working on this at times, but I want to keep my habit of not putting a quilt away. I don’t want to build up my UFO pile again after working so hard to get it down to a manageable size. It would be easy to put it away, but I don’t think it would feel good and I am sooooo looking forward to add the yardage to my “Fabric Used” spreadsheet!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
