I'm Lagging Behind


I feel like the turtle, I am lagging so far behind...but here are my blocks to this point. I have the 5 last blocks done and all the square strip borders ready to sew on. Tonight. Then to the sashing. Some of you have been talking about the borders being your least favorite part...I think mine is the sashing and cornerstones. Once I get to the border I always feel like I'm almost done. I went upstairs this morning to sew feeling very sad...Sept 11 a day that is in all of our memories forever. Wishing everyone peace and love today.

That is turning out so-o-o pretty! I love the color scheme.

Your blocks look great -- keep going, you're almost there. I kind of agree on the cornerston/sashing point, it can be the part that slows me down. Keep at it.

The blocks are looking great, keep at it, it isn't a race, sometimes we do things to motivate ourselves and instead it becomes a pressure-this is supposed to be fun!

It's really looking good. Can't wait to see it finished (no pressure - LOL) Love those colors! You're not lagging behind!!

Don't worry - it's not a race! You blocks are so cheerful and scrappy - I love them.

I love your blocks - my kind of quilt --slow and steady wins the race...as cliche as it sounds, you're enjoying yourself and foregoing mistakes by taking your time...good going...
