I’m a little nervous about this, but I’m going to give it a shot!
I typically need projects that come together quickly. I get bored with persnickety things because ug. It feels like so much work. I’m trying to get over that, because there are some incredibly beautiful quilts that I want to make that require more than some basic slicing and dicing of jelly roll strips.
The more I quilt, the more I enjoy all the parts of quilting. When I first started out, I really disliked cutting (which is kind of a vital part of it). I just wanted to sew! But the more I did it, the more I liked it. So I’m hoping this quilt sparks more of that kind of joy. It was built for fussy cutting, and I’m going to try a few blocks of that, but I think that still might be one step beyond my persnicket-level. We shall see.
Currently gathering fabric and planning some colors. In the next two weeks I hope to get some blocks cut before the event starts, because quilting on summer weekdays can be hard for me. I’m going to take the host’s advice and shoot for seven blocks a week, instead of one block a day… Though I’m going to try to get a bit ahead so I can still share one block a day. That seems so much more manageable for me!
