LOOKING FORWARD TO DIVING IN...


During quilt group, I began the work of cutting out two new quilts!  Things went well but since I am still trying to think through
 'the miserable headache that never ends', 
I read everything four times 
and checked and rechecked to avoid mistakes.!
  I am cutting out all of the pieces before I begin the piecing on these two quilts.  I don't always do that but since I am making two,
 I thought it would be a good idea to have them both cut out. 
 Do you have a preference for cutting out--everything at once 
or enough for a block at a time?
I also picked up some more jute cord to add to the leaves.  
These are the colors I want to add; 
 I will also vary the sizes of the leaves.  
I've picked out another branch 
to begin a more traditional wall hanging out of a thicker jute cord.

  1. I usually cut the pieces for the whole quilt before I sew. I like your new pattern.

  2. I cut a little at a time because my cutting is as bad as my sewing. I don't want to waste material if I have gone terribly wrong which I do on a regular basis anymore.

  3. On the few quilts that I've made I've cut the entire thing out before beginning sewing.
    I'm fascinated by those leaves.
    Blessings,
