slow and steady wins the race!

it's just as cold as ever here (-40 degrees wind child predicted for tonight and tomorrow!) and I've been able to sew away. not much pink this week. (ok, no pink sewing...) but I still have stuff to share.


this quilt was a pile of 100+ 2½" strips last week. now it's a GIGANTIC quilt- 75" X 100". (you can find the pattern here.) I did fudge a bit on the squares, though, making them a different size. and although the squares are all cut on the bias, the straight grain sashing strips made them behave just fine.

Geez!! You made that quilt top in just ONE WEEK?!?! I am in awe (and no wonder you had no time for PINK sewing!)
