    Default Daily Quilt Motivation

    I decided I will do something with my quilt project each night...15 mins to an hour after work. Thought it would help to post what I did...join me...what did you do tonight...I pressed open 3 strips of 44 tumbler strips then pressed the front side...I am making a king size quilt and think the daily baby steps will speed it along...

    Since posting...I got my butt up and pinned together two of the strips...yeah...that was easy...otherwise I would have just been on here reading and watching TV...think I will do one more. Have you started yet?

    I finished the last blocks for my scrappy quilt. I had too many strips so I made 12 inch blocks out of muslim & ended up with 40 blocks! How many quilts will I end up with? No idea yet but they will all be donated!

    My Labyrinth quilt top is finished, now working on how to back, binding, and what color thread for quilting. My problem is not staying motivated it is getting me out of the sewing room to get anything else done.
