Quilt-a-long is coming along nicelySaturday, January 12, 2008
Where has the time gone?
The past couple months have been quite busy and have left me little time to do things like quilting. I started a new job in the beginning of December and have decided that December is a terrible time to change jobs. Especially when you had only been working 32 hours a week previously and had adjusted quite nicely to 3 day weekends. Luckily, I had the week between Christmas and New Years off and got to catch up a lot of the things that got push to back burner. Especially the quilt-a-long. This morning I worked a little more on the blocks. I am now finished with week 6 and have the pieces cut for weeks 7 and 8. Still behind, but at least I'm not still on week 2. :) Here's my progress. I like some of the blocks much better than others. I was kind of scared about how they would look all together, but I was pleasantly surprised! Sometimes I think I'm too much of an engineer to have a quilt of all different blocks with a random assortment of colors, but it's not so bad after all. Now that I know what they look like together it will be easier to choose colors for the coming weeks as well.

Nicole,
Really enjoyed reading your blog. I love your first quilt. The colors are beautiful. I'm doing the quilt-a-long too, though I just joined and am working hard to catch up. I'm just starting block 5. Keep up the great work!
Nichole - this is looking great! I chucked about the Engineering thing. If you don't like to put the blocks right up against each other, you could always put a latice strip between them. Kind of sets them apart. Just a thought! Your colors are pretty
Your colors look fabulous!
