Pink and Blue Quilt Continued

Hi Everyone, welcome back again.

I haven’t really got to much to update you on this week. Last week’s goals were to finish the applique on the centrepiece, add a border to the centrepiece, and then piece all the blocks together ready for a whole quilt border this week. I would like to say I got that all done, but that would be a lie. I have at least finished off the applique so it is ready for its border, the only problem is I can’t find the right fabric. I might have to go shopping today after the kids wake up from their naps.

So this week’s goals are:

• Add border to centrepiece

• Piece all the blocks together

• Add border (possibly two) to the whole quilt

• Figure out possible applique designs for main border

Also in the not too distant future I need to make some boosters for Johannes’ nappies. I’m hoping to get this quilt top finished first though so I can pack away all of the pinks and blues I’ve got lying about the place before I get out my nappy fabric and make an even bigger mess! I really do need to make myself a hat at some point too…

This is why I need to get the quilt top finished before I work on Johannes’ nappies, there is more than enough mess as it is without adding in a second project!

Well that’s the plan for this week. I’m expecting Johannes to wake up any minute now, I might be able to squeeze in a little bit of time writing up the pattern first though.

Till next time, Keep On Stitcing!
