Setting Them Up...

Brynwood Needleworks - 9 of 12 Primitive Gatherings Summer 2016 Freebie Blocks
 
I didn't spend my weekend stitching, but I did spend it planning ahead. I was tidying up the studio and going through my wool projects. I came across all the Primitive Gatherings' Summer 2016 free blocks. I decided this was as good a place to start as any.
 
Brynwood Needleworks - 9 Down. 3 To Go,

There are twelve 5-1/2" (finished) blocks to do. I figured that because setting the blocks up is usually the most time-consuming part of a wool project, I would spend time doing just that. Then, when I want to sit and stitch, all I'll have to do is grab a box and start needle dancing.

I'm going to do the same with a number of other kits I have waiting to be done, and I'll end up with a real selection to play with. Once these twelve blocks are stitched, I'll set up a center block and the sashing for this one, and I'll end up with a lovely wall quilt when all is said and done. 

I have to say that just completing this portion of the project feels like a real accomplishment. I can see what the blocks will look like, and just concentrate on adding fun threads and stitches to make it my own. I can see many fun hours in my future.

Come back this week. I've decided to have a Valentine's Giveaway for my readers. I hope you'll decide to join in the fun! See you later. (Tag will be here tomorrow.)
