Work in progress!

I am trying to stick with blogging once a week. So here is what I have been working on for the last 2 weeks. The blocks are almost done, all 80 of them. I can't wait to see the top once it together. Maybe Next week!

I have fallen off the blogging wagon again and blocks for Lauren

I keep promising I am going to blog at least once a week, but then I was not getting any sewing done and feeling a little overwhelmed with life and so I just stop the blogging. But I have gotten my sewing area cleaned up and under a control, at least a little bit so I can actually sit and do some sewing this week, and every week I hope.

These are the blocks I have done for Lauren over at Uppity Mama. We are in the Los Angeles Modern Quilting Bee/Block Swap. She gave us such beautiful fabrics. I love the turquoise blues. Her theme was square peg/round hole. So we did blocks that had circles and log cabin type blocks.

How much do you pin?


How much do you pin? I pin and pin and pin some more when I am layering and basting a quilt to be quilted. You can see this from the picture above. Do I over pin? Can a quilt be over pinned?
I will show you the finished quilt in a day or two.
