July has been a slothful month for me so far. The kids are on holiday and I think I have been too.
But I am gearing up for some progress on my double wedding ring quilt with an arrival anyday now of my background fabric - I'll be needing a lot!
I just managed to squeeze a few more arcs into yesterday's stitching. Those 3 slender pinky ones! I stitched two pinky fabrics together and used my 'Marti Michell Double Wedding Ring pieced arc segment templates' to cut out my shape. Easier to do, than say, I think....
This is the big picture so far.... as you can see I seem to be running out of space here but I am planning on an eight by eight block layout - hmm that could be a bit tricky...
So much fun and totally legal - aren't we lucky!?
And now to winning matters....just a reminder of who our lovely sponsors are:

Now I know Leanne is busy packing up her house and flying to the far north to teach but I'm wondering if she has had a scrap of time for some scrappy piecing?

Well, I just came by to see if there was a linkup (forgot it is the second Tuesday of the month, duh) but I see I won a prize! Yippee! Thank you soooo much. Thank you for hosting these, where I can find more inspiration to get through the mountain of scraps in my house. :-)
ReplyDeletelove your DWR progress so far....i had never thought out of the box with this pattern before and i am so liking what i see...thank you!
ReplyDeleteOh....I don't know if I won or not. You have me listed as #21 winner for Mad About Patchwork Gift Cert. However you have Cynthia Brunz of Quilting is More Fun than Housework at the link for Sane, Crazy, Crumby. I verified I was #21 at the linky party and that the link was correct for my website so not sure if something went haywire or not or if I'm actually a winner since I haven't heard anything yet.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is coming along beautifully! Thanks so much to you and your sponsors for hosting such a great event!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the winners!
