I haven't done much sewing or quilting at all. I'm still adjusting to the passing of my dad. However, I would like to get to Arcadia Avenue soon. I finished this block up last week. This is the 10th block out of 12.
Here's a closeup of what I've done. I outlined the seams in the middle black star. I stitched in the ditch in the gray/white areas. I made little arcs in each of the little colored squares. I quilted lines in the smaller outer triangles. I made wishbones in the larger outer triangles. I like how this block turned out.
I've been watching television and sewing down the binding on my scrap quilt. I hope I start up sewing again soon. I have the next few days off and I think it would make me feel better.
it is tough when you lose your parents. hugs and prayers for comfort in the days to come.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dawn. Hoping my quilting is therapeutic if I ever get the urge to get back to it.

ReplyDeleteArcadia quilting is so beautiful Julierose
Thank you, Julierose. I guess I just need time. I don't think it's ever easy.
DeleteThe quilting on this is gorgeous - you are making progress one step at a time :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Raewyn! I'm getting through it a little bit at a time but it's getting done!
