Tonight, of all the projects I have on the go, I began a new quilt! This is quilt # 4 of my Big Quilt Project where I need to have 5-7 quilts completed by Christmas. Quilts 1 & 2 are completed and # 3 needs to be sandwiched, but I did not feel like doing that tonight.
I began by cutting a lot of 6.25 inch squares then I cut them into quarters.
After this was done, I sewed them together to get half squares. Then ironed them. Then sewed each half together to get 42 5.25 inch (I think) squares. I remembered tonight how much I hate ironing things but am glad I am starting to make progress on this one finally. The fabric has been taunting me for 3 weeks.

Great start. I bet it makes a beautiful finish, too.
I don’t know now. My brain is playing games with me and I am stumped.

I love hourglass blocks!
Thanks for visiting. This is the first time I have made them. I like them, just not the rest of the pattern..
They look good. A successful FNSI!
Thank you! It was a successful night. The pattern though, not so successful.
