Well, it's just a few days into 2010 and I am making good progress on my quilting projects.
Jacob's Ladder
I have now made up six full blocks of this quilt (only 43 more to go lol!). Here's a pic. If you squint your eyes, you can see the pattern emerging with the light/dark blocks:

I have various other part completed units ready to sew together for this quilt:
However, I have now received the next issue of Popular Patchwork, so will be making a start on the first border for my stay at home quilt before continuing with the Jacob's Ladder.
Grandmother's Flower Garden
I have made the first flower for Grandmother's Flower Garden. I have decided to stick with single ring flowers. The photograph isn't the best quality I'm afraid. I will have to leave the papers and tacking stitches in until the hexagons are sewed to other hexagons.

I never have seen:"Grandmother’s Flower Garden". It is very interesting looking.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to see lots of lovely examples of Grandmothers Garden, there is a really good flickr group here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/grandmasgarden/pool/ It's well worth a look!
