June is going to be a busy month, but I feel pretty confident that I can meet my One Monthly Goal: finishing my Jamestown Landing quilt.
 |
| My blocks are all together and the inner border is on. Luckily I had enough leftover matching strips from sewing the string blocks. They are slightly wider than the inner border measurement in the book, but I'm okay with that--I think it will work. Okay, I admit I was too lazy to trim them down. |
 |
| Now I need to make 16 of these printer paper sized string blocks for the outer borders. They will be split down the center. I'm half way there! |
 |
| Bonnie suggests piecing left over strip pieces together to make them long enough for the border blocks. It's nice to not end up with too much waste and you know I love "making do". |

This will be a gorgeous quilt--you have really done a lovely job on this Jamestown one. Hugs, Julierose ;)) (Hate this no comment to gmail thing!!)
ReplyDeleteAh, again blues. I wish I had kept my "Baskets of Life" pattern set as I think it would have been pretty done in blues.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful. I love a blue and cream quilt. Hugs
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty quilt! I love blue and white, and your added off-white is a great addition.

ReplyDeleteI love those blues and tans together. I didn't realize you have a long arm.
ReplyDeleteAll those blues look fantastic together. It's nice to work with a pattern that has the no waste philosophy.
ReplyDeleteBlogger is a pain in the butt.... Nice project......
ReplyDeleteOh Jamestown Landing is so beautiful and I love the idea of using up the pieces like that. Blues!
ReplyDeleteYour Jamestown Landing is coming along beautifully. You're several steps ahead of mine. But I love how yours is coming out. You are almost done with the quilt top. Keep on sewing!
