My progress


The quilt deadline is here, but my quilt is still in pieces - and still lacking 3 blocks.

Life has given my quilt life an unexpected fender bender this year, but I am still wanting to finish this quilt, as I so love the blocks and the look of the finished quilt.

I promise I will keep on keeping on, one stitch at a time :-)

When we started the quilt I decided this project should be my needleturn applique learning experience, and it has been a nice journey!

Thanks to Chookyblue for keeping check on us :-)

Thanks to all sharing their journey on the blog.
