This year 2026 is the year of making no more quilt blocks--Why?
Because--there are stacks and stacks of finished blocks, just waiting to be completed into quilt tops.
It's slow going mainly due to the fact, some of the stacks do NOT have all the blocks--
where did they go? It's not possible I didn't sew them--yes! In December, there was no sewing--
I'm hoping I saved the instructions otherwise, I'll need to research each one--
just what I wanted to do--NOT!!
Okay, let's begin with this stack--I count and there are 16 blocks--I only need 15.
what to do with that one extra? I'm NOT going to make two more blocks--
the extra will begin another stack--which could become an 'orphan' top.
Then, it hit me! I could use that extra block to make it a SQUARE top!! my brain is not engaged!
The more I looked at this top--it bothered me!
What to do? Frog it!! And make it square quilt.
All the fabrics are hand dyed. Also, doing quilt along process.
Quilt the block first, add sashing strips to each side and attach another block. The question now is to add borders or not?
now! that looks better and I used all the blocks! I don't know where my brain was when I was assembling the blocks. One border added and another on the way.
The best part about this top is it will be finished when I stitch on the binding.
