Right out of the gate and I already messed up... |
Well i don't have too much time to go into it, but it was CHALLENGING to say the least. Definitely got my attention.
I learned a LOT. I thought it though be a great quilt to do in vintage scraps. I think that might be a terrible idea.
I had good intentions |
I am going to re-think this whole thing. I think if I am going to put all this time, I should really just buy some coordinating quilt weight fabrics, so the whole think won't look like complete VOMIT like my first block.

Nothing is lost- this is my test block... I can allow myself that.
Here are some pretty pictures to try and end on a good note.
You thought it looked easy? oh you poor poor thing. That one gave me fits! I think you should continue with your scrappiness - it'll all work out in the end!

Before that that comes in, I'll make a few more "practice" blocks...
I was disappointed in the book. i thought it was going to be farmer's wives talking about QUILTING. not milking cows. :-(
