One test block done for Nicole’s Sofa Quilt- not a whole lot but almost all the components are done and if I can sew some this week, the progress will be quick now.
I’m still working on the second set of the flying geese, but hope to get caught up tonight. I’m really enjoying this project. It’s been a while since I’ve made something that didn’t use scraps or fat quarters.
Nice block…….does it form a secondary pattern? I can’t quite visualize it.
Happy Sewing

Hope to post my design wall soon. Essentially it is the same as last week’s – because I was sick with both asthma and a tummy problem.
HOWEVER – I did get son to tell me what colors he likes – same with Lynn. Both like blue. Period. Sigh! There are reasons I really hoped that for a couch cover (he knows this – so does Lynn) he would prefer something in shades of brown or black or gray at least (although I would REALLY love to see BRIGHTS and CHEERY instead) but it is blue they like.
So – an reviewing what I have in shades of blue – and will be choosing the colors for the quilt. And – no – secondary, tertiary, etc. colors won’t do it. Just blue!
It IS strange though – he REALLY does like all the other quilts I am doing – and they are in a LOT of bright and cheerful colors!
On my design wall – the placemats – which I will finish tonight (was going to be last night – but I went to bed instead!), Nicole’s couch quilt – for son and Lynn, UGRR – the two blocks, Arizona Skies. No new pix.
