I've been working on all three
Red, White & True blocks. I'm enjoying this quilt along, so far. I must be, since I'm working on three different sets at the same time.
I am behind on trimming my strips on one set, but, all of my quarter square triangles are done, and trimmed. Not bad, since I started cutting out two sets just this week.

Sorry about the pictures. The colors are much prettier than the camera shows.
This
quilt along goes pretty fast, so, you still have time to join in.
I got up early this morning and made 2 pincushions for an exchange with my Treadle On group. These still need to be stuffed, then I'll sew a button in the center. I'm only exchanging one of these.

As usual, all my stitching this week has been done on my hand crank. It even went with me to the Quilts of Valor sew-in on Tuesday, where I worked on sewing the strips for 2 sets of Red, White & True.
Love your pin cushions. A great idea I might have to borrow! Have a great day Cheryl.
ReplyDeleteI did not realize you were working on 3 of those - each a beauty. Cute idea for the pinnies.
ReplyDeleteCrank away. You're on a roll.
ReplyDeleteYour quilts will be beautiful, and so will the pin cushions. The one looks like the center is spinning!
ReplyDeleteAll of the QOV's look great, three at once may be the way to go. I love the pincushions.
ReplyDeleteCute pincushions!
ReplyDeleteYou are sewing along at high speed, Cheryl! I love all of your color choices! You will like tomorrow's directions....
ReplyDeleteLove the hexie pincushions! What are you stuffing them with?
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see how all of your versions of Red, White, and True turn out! You get so much done for working on a hand crank! Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteEverything is looking great, Cheryl! I love the Americana project and that wonderful green in the other.
ReplyDeleteManage et tois! Three going at one time. You are brave. Love the pincushions.

I did not participate in any treadlon exchanges this year, I knew with my surgery and teaching time management would be an issue for me. Your blocks look like a lot of fun!
