One Year! Whew!


This one is Elaine's quilt. It is a bit more vivid in person...especially the deep red row. We are going to go shopping next week for new triangle material. Deep red. It wasn't until we put it up on the wall that we noticed how gray the triangles were and how it would look better with deep red triangles. Oh well, we only made three triangles and we love to shop for fabric!

This one is mine. I think I really like it. I hate making the triangles! They are mostly paper-pieced and I am not very good at that at all! It takes all my concentration to sew them!

Hmmm...we should have pushed a little harder for our first year! hahahaha If we would have made 42 blocks it would have been a quarter of them. We didn't plan that very well. Then we would have had to make 13 traingles and we certainly didn't want to do that. There is a reason they come later...it's called a learning curve!

Next update will probably be at the six month mark. :)
