Red & White blocks.

 Now that i knew how to cut the red fabrics so i didn't have any waste i prepared what was needed. Then matching the squares up of red & white i drew lines for the magic 8 blocks & set them aside until all were done but my helper must have thought they needed pressing.

To early silly kitty i'm just drawing lines. That done over to the sewing machine where more help was given.

After that she left because my son had scared her when he opened the gate beside my sewing room.

After cutting 24 blocks into the half square triangles it was onto pressing them. Oh so many to press. Then comes the trimming. I only have a couple of piles done as i need to get out into the yard & get it tidied up from all the rain making weed, grass & the plants(they badly need pruning again) grow.

Then later on another of the  pests  cats decided sleeping on my cut of fabrics would be comfy.

Ah well such is the life of a cat owner .:)

Happy Stitching,

I always find the pressing and trimming of HST's take me ages...

It looks like you are well 'supervised' in the sewing room.

Not sure if your kitty is helping or hindering. 😀

Such beautiful kitties……and they look up at you so innocently. At least they don’t seem to have shuffled your pieces. That’s a lot if HST, but they are worth it.
