Here is my November "Schnibbles" quilt, "Morning Joe."
I used a single charm pack of "Java" by Deb Strain for Moda. I didn't cut down the 5" squares, just made them into half-square triangles. Because my seams on the diagonal weren't quite 1/2" apart, I could square up the HSTs to 4.5" -- so my HSTs are larger than those called for in the pattern. I don't want to go back and cut them down to the smaller size, so I'll have to calculate my own sashing strip sizes.
Linking up to WIP Wednesday at Freshly Pieced.
I just got word from My Little Sailor that he is back on the ship after going ashore in the Philippines to document the relief efforts. He's "a little sunburnt" but safe!
From the desk of your
What a great pattern to highlight those colors! So delightful fall! Love.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ann! I wish I had bought two charm packs, but this worked out OK.
DeleteHappy that you've heard from your son. I do remember him as being fair skinned in photos you've shared with us. Hair Conditioner works really well to calm a sun burn. Like your Morning Joe. Sandi
ReplyDeleteOF course you can get to 52!!! though there is a bit of work in that one...Good to hear LS is OK - Hopefully he can stay out of the sun - fpr a bit at least.
ReplyDeleteYour "Morning Joe" looks fab, Marti. :o)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you've heard from your little sailor. You must be relieved!
Calculate the border...ah yes, remember the days when we had to calculate everything? Or maybe I'm older than you. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh yeah -- I remember tracing around a cardboard template to make a 9-patch block! So lucky with all the rulers and acrylic templates nowadays!
DeleteI like your Morning Joe. I hate cutting down precuts too. Seems like something you just shouldn't have to do. I'm glad your son is safe. A girl in my class at school, year 6, has relatives in the Philippines. She told me her Mum's family is safe (they lived in different region to that affected by the typhoon) but they have not yet heard from her grandmother on her Dad's side. How awful. They still can't get in contact.
ReplyDeleteI’d love to change the spell icons, if anyone is willing to contribute art for credit then I will change it asap. I don’t think I can get sued given that it’s for non-commercial purposes but I’m not a lawyer.
