On the Road Again

     Since I have been on the road the last week, first doing a guild program, then visiting friends and family, I have been working on some portable projects. 


At long last, I have gotten all of the blocks for my Van Gogh/economy block quilt pressed, trimmed, and ready to go up on the design wall.


      I am using this painting by Vincent Van Gogh as a color reference for this quilt. 


     I can't wait to see what the blocks look like up on the design wall. It feels like I have been working on them for ages!

     I have also been working on a newer project. I have been cutting, and pairing pieces to make another Jacob's Ladder quilt. Here is the drawing.


     I cut and paired the HST while I was at home, and I have been cutting pieces from strips, for the 4 patches, while traveling. After dinner tonight, I will begin pairing these pieces to make 4 patches. Once I get home I will just set all of these prepared units near the sewing machine, where they will be ready for easy sewing.


      So that is what I have been up to this week. I hope your projects are going well. I will link up with Moving It Forward Monday
