Red, White & Blue Quilt

Red, White & Blue Update

Working on the blocks for the RW&B quilt

The blue and white blocks are finished

14 of them, ready for sashing.

 Now for the red and white group

this is how they will look.

 For me it works to "stage" my work

this helps me hopefully not make a mistake in construction.

Each block contains 9 - 4.5 in blocks

It is important to make sure the star points are

going the right way, so staging helps with that.

 I begin with the upper two right blocks in the first row.

keeping them in the correct orientation, I move

them closer to the machine

 placing them right sides together and then pin them together

with the pin on the edge that is to be sewn

 it is so easy to sew the wrong edge...I have done it to many times

 so I pin. 

 with all 16 pinned, I can now chain piece the pieces

 after sewing, I will place them back in their place as

they should be, and add the end piece.

Then move to the second row.

Once all the rows are constructed, I will join the rows.

Progress is being made.

Seems things keep stopping me from working

hopefully that is all over with and I can get this 

quilt together.

Until later....God's Blessings
