I got an early start on my weekend quilting retreat. I left the office at 4 instead of 5:30 and made a stop at Wal-Mart for some munchies for the weekend and some greeting cards. One more quick stop at the corner grocery market and I was home and eating dinner at 5 PM.
I decided to start sewing at 6. I completed the third hour of my Gratitude quilt and started working on the 25 patch blocks. I got one 25 patch done and added the four sides to it. I love the colors together. The red is working well. I'm not happy with how wavy it is. The side pieces were longer than the completed patch so I think I'm going to have to do some trimming to them to make them work better.
Tomorrow Victoria will be here by 9:30 and Tasha will be here around noon. I don't know what project I'll work on first tomorrow. I like having several projects available to work on. I won't get bored when I change from one project to another.
Check back tomorrow to see what trouble we get into during our quilt retreat!

Hey girl, the block looks great!! Probably your machine sews at it's own version of 1/4" and Judy's measurement might be a tat too long for you. I do love your colors!
Hope you are are having a super, duper good time in Amery. Hugs, Finn

That quilt is going to be great! I really like the colors... the red really made it work better, huh?
This is nice. Your quilt will be beautiful.
Looks great! I love green, and that is the perfect touch for this block.
