FNSI December

Where has the year gone????? Last night was the last FNSI for 2017 hosted by the very lovely Wendy.

Recently as a way of thanking her customers Jodi offered 200 lucky people a free Mandolin block which is her new BOM for 2018. Signups start January the 3rd if anyone is interested.

 I was one of the lucky ones to get a block to try out. Last night i dug through my scrap bag looking for suitable pieces that went together. Then there was the cutting & prepping. Finally the sewing.
Even though they are really big pieces it still takes a while to sew together, Not sure what i'll do with the block when i'm done. Maybe turn it into a cushion.

Pop over to Wendy's blog for links to see who joined in & what projects they worked on.

Happy stitching,

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
