If you have been reading my blog in the past you are aware I am a quilter using many different methods of constructing my blocks. Our guild is celebrating our 20th anniversary in October, and in March we were advised two of our members were making a round robin challenge. This quilt is to be made by each member, every month we are given a different round to add to this quilt. We can use any colour, any block but we must follow the task set out each month. I wanted to make a Christmas quilt, however, did not have enough fabric for that, then I started on a panel, and it was not working our very well either, So when the stores opened up I bought more fabric and started, now I am three moths behind schedule. Decided to do a Mariners Compass for the center block.......bad idea, but I am muddling through. Not a fan of paper piecing but love the preciseness of it. Got my paper pieces and started, it is taking me forever to finish this block, then I looked at the month of May's requirement, be damned if it isn't a round with some paper piecing in it. Going to find a simple block for that one. Don't know how anyone can make an entire quilt this way. Are you a quilter, have you ever done paper piecing and do you like doing it?
Worked in the garden this afternoon, it is a lovely day, sunny, not too hot and no bugs.
Now getting ready to prepare dinner, on the menu pulled pork on a bun, salad and brown beans, dessert chocolate cake and ice cream. Simple and easy but quite tasty.
Stay safe stay well.
