When I decided to do the quilt a long, I didn't know all that life would throw my way:
- 3 weeks of being sick
-college trips, college trips, college trips
-sports practices
-a brain cramp with following the Ohio Star block directions. I have looked at the directions for 2 weeks, on and off, and they made no sense to me. Looked at them again yesterday and everything clicked. Not sure what the initial hang up was. Pretty simple to follow.
-nasty comment from a long armer that set me back
My progress:
-all material cut. Love my material!
-large quarter square triangles made
-half of the Ohio Star quarter square triangles made ( hope to have them all made by the end of the day and maybe a couple of Ohio square blocks finished!)
I think a realistic deadline for finishing my quilt will be the end of April. Tomorrow we have another college visit and my husband's office party. Sunday is church and a local quilt show. Wednesday we leave for a trip to Ohio to visit a Christian college out there and won't be back until Saturday.
Once the Ohio blocks are done, the quilt will go faster. I can already tell I am going to love it! I will post a picture when I am done. I can't wait to see everyone's quilt. The glimpses I have had, I love how different they look even though we are all using the same fabric.
