I just discovered the joy of chain piecing on my last quilt and now I can successfully manage sewing blocks together without wasting thread or time. Why didn't I try this sooner? The only downside of this is that the kitties discovered my pile of sewn fabric while I was away from my sewing and turned it into a temporary bed. Oh well, I guess it just meant more ironing for me.
My blocks are all sewn together, pressed and trimmed and they're ready to be formed into a quilt top. I'm wasting no time on my month long break from school because I've got lots to accomplish!
Isn't this chestnut fabric great?!
