I think I'm up-to-date with the "Goodnight Irene Sew-Along". Hoping to make my quilt a bit larger than the original plan.
Last weekend a couple of friends celebrated Big Birthdays - had a lovely time on Saturday night at Barbara's birthday dinner.
Dear Marina sent me a fantastic bagful of Bonnie and Camille "Bliss" offcuts. I've added these to my stash of "Ruby" and a couple of "Vintage Modern" fabrics and have started making the "Scrappy Trip Around the World" - a short attention span has struck again.

So far none of the blocks are pressed after the initial strips are sewen together and the blocks aren't sewn together - I'm not keen on pressing the blocks until the final layout is decided because there are so many seams.

Hello Lynda,
I love seeing what you do with your short attention span. Great to see bloggers sharing fabric.
Happy days.
Bev.
yours is looking really nice too....I think I am going to go for the 5x5 to start with, but I have tons of little squares already cut so thinking of making another quilt later. Only time will tell on that one. I put just the x's down together and I think that would make a fun quilt too.
Loving the trip around the world blocks...you are making great progress on both projects.
Your sewing projects are looking lovely Lynda.
Wow...love them Lyndah..
Very pretty Irene quilt blocks. I am thinking of making mine bigger too. How many blocks are you going to use in each row?
Your blocks are just beautiful.Love both projects.Happy sewing!!
I am making mine bigger too.
