Today I had a few hours to work in the studio so I enjoyed finishing the piecing on the Archway piece.
Sorry for the crooked photo!!!!
I am thinking that I will cut off the top border (and maybe the bottom) a bit more but I want to think about it a bit first.
I have also been working on a scrap top that I saw in a book that I got for Christmas. After putting together a few simple blocks I decided to lay them out and see how they looked.
Here are two of the options that I came up with……
Blocks without sashes….
Blocks with navy “sashes”….
But I actually like it better vertically…
Neither of these are what the actual pattern calls for, and I am not sure that I actually like either of these, but there is a LONG way to go.
The really good thing about this project is that I started out with my 3-1/2 inch drawer looking like this……
And it ended up a lot emptier and tidier at the end……
Glad to have a few more Baby Steps behind me……
One thought on “Still working”
Lovely to see the Archway pieced. I would be careful of taking off too much as you would alter the proportion which really works well at the moment. Great variations with the blocks, I like the vertical best.
