Monday Morning Design Wall 4/2/2012

Another week and the top for my Double Wedding Ring is complete (well each piece is done) and now all I have to do it sew them all together.  I did this in 8 days!  Finished up on Friday night at 11:00 p.m. and let me tell you, that was not the smartest thing I did.  I actually spent half an hour unsewing because I was so tired that I but the last piece on wrong!!  Bur then, since I was so tired and so close to being done, I just powered through and finished everything up.  I think it looks great and I am so excited to have made one of these quilts. 

I have also included pictures of my three applique blocks that I completed these last few weeks.  For some reason they keep loading sideways and after tying to get them to turn out right side up, I have finally given up and surrendered to the program.  Just turn your computer on its side and they will look normal!!  these are blocks from Piece of Cake Designs called My Whimsical Quilt Garden.  Just having a blast working on them.  I hope to be able to start bordering them and putting them together in rows by the end of the week so I need to get the Double Wedding Ring off my design wall.  Remember to check out Judy's blog and see the rest of the design walls. My favorite Monday lunch activity!

  1. wow -- lovely wedding ring quilt... and I love your applique blocks. Are the photos right side up in your photo software? If not there is probably a button on there that will turn them. I don't think you can turn them in blogger.

  6. You're a freakin' WONDER, Jennifer! I don't think I have half your energy and I certainly can't get by on fewer than 7-8 hours of sleep! Look forward to seeing these in person. (How's "Serendipity" coming along?)
