Here’s what Quilt #2 looks like now. 14 more blocks completed.
I bought 4 yards of white flannel to make a design wall but it isn’t long enough. Will have to buy more. For now, I am using batting.
This batch of blocks turned out better than the first eight. I am figuring out what works best for me.
At first I was putting the strip on the bottom so I could watch what the seams were doing as I sewed over them. But when going over the “bump”, the presser foot seemed to skip a stitch. And made the seams crooked. So.. I switched and put the strip on top before sewing. Problem solved.
This will be the center.
I want this quilt to be larger than my first one, so I am thinking I will need about 30-40 more blocks. The unfinished block measures 9 1/2″.
And I still have to “quilt” my first quilt top. Going to work on it today.
