Thursday

I'm working along on my Queen of Hearts project.  Half square triangles trimmed and pressed, and blocks are starting to happen.  This is such a welcome change of pace from the intense concentration needed for Starowka -- almost instant gratification!  This is my own design, not a particular pattern, just making best use of cutting the fat quarters.

The block is a variation of Texas Puzzle -- different proportions but close enough.  I made a similar queen-size quilt using this plan way back in 2007.  Whew, lots of quilts under my belt aren't there?

 I'm struggling with the doldrums here, so I decided to shake myself up and start a completely new quilt project. (!!!)  (Because puttering with fabric cheers us up, right?)

I chose a fat quarter bundle of wovens from Fableism Supply Co. called 'Queen of Hearts,' and added a few other FQs to make the assortment scrappier and give me more combinations.

Squares cut, paired, and pressed -- tomorrow I can chain piece and trim without thinking too hard :)

Meanwhile, both RSC/pink and Little Blocks seem to have been put on the back burner already.  Not an auspicious start to the new year.

Starowka

I'm making good progress on the blocks and pieced sashings for 

STAROWKA

the Quiltville 2024 Mystery quilt.  I'm happy with my springtimey color palette.

The original mystery quilt is twice as large, but I'm going to stop here at lap size because I don't have a need for more big quilts in my life at this time.  Onward to borders, but I'm going to take a little break first, such intense piecing  ...
