I worked 2.5 - 3 hours today on the 1 hour quilt. It's been a few days since I last worked on it, and I was on a roll. I have all 20 blocks to this stage now and will start sashing next time (tomorrow).
I did this applique block on Saturday night. I have another ready to go, but I've been reading at night instead of appliqueing -- I'll get back to it after I finish my book.
Gratitudes:
1. Bill is going to get some angle iron to make new tracks for the Handiquilter -- that should hopefully solve some problems with the HQ. And, it buys time on saving for the longarm. :-)
2. Lunch with Deb yesterday.
3. A wool penny rug workshop at guild on Monday -- great instructors and lots of fun -- although there's another unfinished project waiting in the wings.
4. Making decisions on Christmas gifts to make.

the applique is going well. I take it the book is pretty good and not an audiobook...
Your blocks are looking great. Maybe next go round, I'll get on the 1 hour project bandwagon, too.
Great job on the 1 hour blocks!
Wow - that's alot of sewing time for you today! My sewing time is in stolen moments here and there, but in the end - it all adds up! I really like your color combo on the 1 hour quilt! Beauty!
Cheers!

Nice scrappy block for the 1-hour quilt. The green fabric in the upper left-hand corner looks like the same fabric I have in one of my squares!
I just love that red in the middle!
Oh your blocks look wonderful! The fabric you used on the shoo fly is one of my favorite fabrics! I just love the red color and the design on it!
I think the colors for the quilt are wonderful!!
