Next UFO is up on the wall.
This was a sew along with Stitch Supply Co. in 2018.
I participated for the first ten weeks
and then had to stop due to family matters.
I have 80 blocks done with 52 left to go.
I learned a lot from the Mugs quilt sew along I just finished.
I know that I get overwhelmed by making decisions.
Trying to pick fabrics every week for the current blocks
and then making them is too much for me.
Once I figured this out,
I decided to pick all the fabric for the remaining blocks.
What a difference that made.
Each week all I had to do was cut and sew.
To finish this quilt, called Village,
I am not only picking all the rest of the fabrics,
but I am also cutting all the pieces.
I have selected 38 more and have begun the cutting.
I will select the rest tomorrow.
This method lets me sit down to sew a little with whatever time I have
without having to first make major decisions.
I try to line up my fabrics for blocks before starting on a project like this. Just feel it goes so much faster with the decisions made before cutting. Really want to make a house/village quilt, it's on my list.
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit the same, trying to make those decisions takes all my time, the sewing is a breeze. Have fun with it!
