I'm a bit behind in this quilt along. I just finished Week 6. Monday she'll post week 9 instuctions. Oh well. I'm having a good time. It is a really intense quilt to work on. It's been a bit difficult, all the segments pieced together end up being longer than the sashing strips, so I've learned a few things.
- starch is a good thing. by starching the crud out of the segmented strips, they don't stretch as much.
- an accurate 1/4" is totally important. mine are pretty good, with only a couple in each strip that aren't accurate, but every 1/8" adds up.
- not a project to work on when the kids are awake. nope. can't concentrate at all.
It is going to a great looking quilt when it's done. I love the bright colors and the white.
Thank you...I am not the only one having a hard time getting my strips right, and I can not work on this quilt when my girls are awake either! I love yours so far. I hope to be more caught up than I am now by the end of this weekend.
