Ta dah!!! OK this numpty got her dates mixed up and thought she had a whole extra week to make this .... Anyhoo I was determined to get this done for the Alice Caroline SOS I have been giving to it for years now and didnt want to miss one.
so I got a wiggle on and got the whole blessed thing quilted, bound and washed in a day 😳 Not saying I could do that again but boy it was intense!!!!
I loved making the pattern I chose, Sashiko stars by Ankas Treasures, such a great pattern
When making it I went through quite a few layouts, I didnt have enough of any one fabric for the star bits so I chose two pink colours one darker and one lighter.
I made 2 blocks in each main block colour, wasnt sure how to lay them out, but ended up with this layout
This was how much of the star patterns I had left!!!! I was a bit stressed I was going to have to do some improv but it all worked out.
this was such a good pattern to make, really easy to chain piece, so well written
Getting my organisation groove on!I always do some test blocks! these turned out perfectly
Great pattern despite the slightly frantic end! will definately make again.
It’s a fantastic quilt and I can’t quite get over just how quickly you’ve made it! Hooray for finishes and the fettling of them *waves pompoms*
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was a great pattern which really helped
