I've been sewing a lot, but still have nothing used to report because nothing is finished yet. I've been having a difficult time with the RR. I had the perfect idea, but it would have been way too time consuming to do what I wanted to do. Instead I made 3 of the paper pieced blocks for one side and made fifteen 6 1/2 inch pieced blocks for two of the other sides. I'm still considering the fourth side.
We are only allowed to show teasers, so here's one of the paper pieced blocks:
I added one half yard of fabric this week when I went to one of the area LQS that is part of a shop hop this weekend. There is too much going on this weekend to hit the other stores in the shop hop.
Used Year to Date: 67.125 yards
Added this week: 0.5 yards
Added year to date: 71.625 yards
Net Added: 4.5 yards
We had a family party at my sister's house yesterday. It was a small group since we were competing with my nieces' and nephews' Columbus Day soccer tournaments, but it is a good thing that it was a small group. My sister's house is undergoing a major kitchen renovation that was supposed to be complete last month. She still had no appliances, sink or cabinets in the kitchen. We had food from Chipolte and ate in the basement and on the back porch. All three of my boys were there, so I was happy!

Your rose is beautiful. I am going to have to give paper piecing a try.
What a gorgeous block Laura. I'm so impressed with your quilting skills.
I am impressed with your talent for paper piecing such tiny pieces. Your rose is beautiful. Can't wait to see the whole quilt.
What a gorgeous paper pieced rose you've made Laura!
