Design Wall Monday–4/18/11

IMG_3238

What was I thinking?  I actually put this old, very old UFO on my guild challenge list.  It must be at least 9 or 10 years old.  There are only 8 blocks so I’m thinking about turning it into a table runner and will probably un-sew some of the blocks so that I can use them as set-in triangles.   This one is due in June, but with everything going on, its going to be here before I know it. 

Wish me luck.  Check out Judy’s Patchwork Times Blog to see what others are working on. 

Enjoy,

  1. Fun idea to turn this UFO into a tablerunner with half blocks on the sides...maybe you have enough blocks to make 2 runners?

  2. As I recall that quilt had a pretty wide sashing to it using 3 fabrics, almost like a rail fence. It going to make a nice table runner.

  11. But Robin -- you will feel so good when you finish this quilt. I am focusing on UFO's this year and have gotten 2 completed. And, 2 are in works. And, I am giving myself permission to start quilts that I've been looking at making for a long time. Why else do I buy the patterns???
