Design Wall Monday Bow Ties
The sign up for Barb's block swap is coming up soon, and the (self imposed) pressure is on to sew up the blocks from last year's swap. Deadlines are good motivators for me. Here are the bow ties from last year on the design wall.
Next will be a 1" or 2" muslin border followed by a border of mini bow ties.
Here are a few blocks that I have sewn so far and a stack of pieces cut and ready to sew. The block on the bottom left is one of the swap blocks from last year.
And see those cute little blue scissors and matching tape measure that Julie sent to me for participating in the Log Cabin Lunatics link up? I am putting them to good use!

LOVE this set of scraps! I see some Civil War Crossings in there. Great colors.

Good for you, making deadlines work for you, All they do for me is stress me out.

The bow tie is a great block and I love that layout
ReplyDeleteLooks great. Wonderful layout and your color placement looks great too.
ReplyDeleteNice setting for your Bowties! I'm glad mine is DONE! It was a fun L/E project. Have fun making the tiny ones for the border.
ReplyDeleteVery fun bowtie quilt. It's amazing how motivating the next quilt along can be when you need to finish up the last project! Hope it all goes together well.
