More Carolina Chaining

No photo description available.

Here is my Carolina Chain so far! I have made 31 blocks. I need a total of 72 blocks so I'm not even halfway there! However, I enjoy making these blocks and using up my stash, although you can't tell from the looks of my scrap bag! I have another block all cut and ready to sew. This is definitely a long term project!

These are the last 3 blocks I made. When I cut for Long Time Gone, I cut extra for this quilt. I hope this speeds up the process! There wasn't much sewing going on here for the last few days. I worked the last 5 days. I'm hoping to catch up now that I'm off until the weekend. It's finally sunny outside and feels like spring. Such a great day to be off!

  1. Great scrap buster - you might have to make two or three, though, to make a dent in your scrap bins, lol! It will be beautiful!

  4. Good Morning Rosemary! Ooh, that project looks so pretty on the design wall. I just love the scrappy look of it – even if it doesn’t seem to be making a dent in your stash. I can relate, oh can I relate. {{Hugs}} and Happy Mother’s Day to you. ~smile~ Roseanne

    1. Thank you! I love making this block even though it's not a fast block to make. I do like the effect when the blocks are all together. We'll see if I actually make a dent into my stash!!

  6. Your Carolina Chain is a beauty - I've been out of circulation for three weeks so I may have missed an earlier post on this, I'd love to make one myself.

    1. Thanks, Maureen! I love this pattern. It's from Bonnie Hunter's book, Addicted to Scraps. It's a nice way to use up those scraps. Although, I never seem to use up as many as I'd like!
