Then additional triangles had to be cut to finish the blocks. I was little short on one of the fabrics so needed to make a few "poverty patches" to have enough of them.
And with those, I finished all sixteen corner blocks!
I finished them two Saturdays ago and just in time: Month 9 arrived in the mail the same day. Yes, I am still way behind but at least I'm also still moving up the ladder!
When they were finished, my plan was to take a short break from "Chronicles" to work on two other projects (like many I suffer from Quilter's ADD). The first was that I started piecing some house blocks for Jo's Crumb Quilt Along. What's been done to date was reported on here.
The second was to clear the last "new start" on the table: I've gone back to work on my "Merrimac Dresdens" blocks. This one is important to me for two reasons: it is the third in the series of Civil War fabric quilts I've worked on this year and a Dresden Plate quilt is one of my "Bucket List" quilts.
Right now I've got one row done and hope to finish the remaining three rows by the end of the week and add the borders for a completed top this weekend. Yes, I know the usual ambitions, but will it get done? We'll see! One things for sure: as always there's alot going on in the city that never sleeps!
