Last Wednesday I shared a photo of my Orange Peel QAL project that looks almost exactly like this one except that now the pins are gone, because all of the applique is finished! Time to figure out how I want to quilt this.
I'm still waiting on the batting delivery so that I can get started quilting Glowing Hearts, so I had time to make a few Scrappy Chain blocks for the current Many Hands, Many Hearts block drive. This is another block that almost takes longer to choose and cut the pieces for than it does to sew.
I was really careful to cut accurately and when sewing to make sure my seam allowance was good and this block turned out nice and square - 12.5 inches. I had read on someone's blog that they had some trouble with that, and I didn't want to waste fabric on an unusable block.
The red one turned out just right, so I made a blue one, too! These are quick and easy to sew up, so I'm definitely planning to make more. The block drive goes through August.
