I've had a very productive week! Last Thursday I posted the first finish of the year, and quickly followed with #2 and #3!
It feels so good to have some finishes done!! The first 2 are at or on their way to their new homes. Liberty is just for me. =)
I've also been working hard making a scrappytripalong quilt for me. I know I should have learned from the little 9 block one, but 36 blocks is a whole lot of tedious work!

Cutting strips.
I decided to do this differently than the original tutorial. I wanted to make sure I was cutting my strips straight, and could do some fussy cutting if need be on certain pieces. |
 |
| Stacks of pretty strips! |
 |
| Then I sew the ends together on 5 of the 6 strip sets... |
 |
| ...and I end up with this. I pin them all together until it's time to rip seams. |
 |
| Hopefully soon I'll have a lot more of these! I can't wait to see the blocks come together. |
