Progress

 I am making progress with Mirrored Mountains see previous post for source. Can you see the accidental mistake?

Now all the blocks are done and joining them will be my first job on retreat starting tomorrow.

Meanwhile on the bed is quite a technical sampler on account of the feathered star centre. The fabrics are nice too but I don't really like it. I don't think I like the harsh contast between blue and white. However I did enjoy making it and the different blocks alongside Bonnie Quilters. It does have a price tag on it from the last Arts & Crafts Show and I will have a second selling attempt at Quay and the 2025 Arts & Crafts in November.

In the sewing room I am prepping samples for an Oast Corner all based on cutting strips from sewn units and rearranging them starting with Mirrored Mountains and now "Navaho" piecing taken from an article by Dawn Pavitt in an an old Quilters' Newsletter
