Yes, here it is, I’m going to make a public confession in hopes of trying to get this project re-booted.
This quilt was started a year ago.
The name of the quilt is “Diamonds are forever”, funny… that’s how long it’s taking me !
I started with alot of enthusiasm and gusto but…. that fizzled.
I think, probably because it was really slow going. Well, ok, I’m really slow going.
Last winter I completed about 35 , 8.5″ blocks and I plan on getting back at it this winter and be finished this winter sometime ( maybe I should be more specific for the time frame ???? )
I put what I have so far back up on the wall to photograph it in no particular order, definitely not the final arrangement for the blocks.
I think I knew last winter that it was going on the back burner the moment I started taking the blocks down to ‘temporarily’ make room for another smaller project.
Anyways, that’s my confession and by sharing it here as a WIP I’m challenging myself to get back at it and get ‘er done !
Please cheer me on by leaving a comment if you have ever made a string quilt and have some speed tips please share them ! – the clickie thing is up at the top of the post on the left
