We cut:
Joy's cheery greens. |
We sewed:
Britt sewed her strip on her treadle machine. You've got to LOVE the juxtaposition of old and new (with her iPad sitting there as she sewed!) |
One of us (hi Britt!) sewed black strips to white strips...uh oh that's wrong! But thankfully no ripping needed as they can be used for last week's Clue 2. Sometimes it pays to be behind on your sewing assignments. ;)
We worked our leader/ender magic:
A green set has gone through the machine and Joy switched to her purples from clue 2. |
We pressed:
Aren't Britt's batiks beautiful?! |
Joy's are right...until she put them through the machine UPSIDE DOWN!! Ugh! |
We matched up sets and made our subcuts:
And sewed some more (note Week Two units in the mix!):
Here's Britt racing to get some units done for a "photo op." |
FINALLY!!
We have our units for Week Three:
Joy's column of scrap... |
And Britt's batik loveliness! |
Thanks, again, to Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville.com for this week's (relatively) easy, albeit time consuming clue! Each week the mystery participants wonder and wait to see what will be done with each of the quilt parts that we are instructed to make.
Any guesses??? We're joining the LINK PARTY (We're link number 86 this week.) on Bonnie's blog and some of the participants have some fairly interesting ideas on the subject.
Only time will tell...
WHAT tricks our illustrious leader has up her sleeve!!!
Until next time...
Happy Quilting!
Isn't that the way of it, lol! Perserverence does pay off though! Looking good!
ReplyDeleteLOVE seeing the treadle out to play. :-) I sewed on my Vintage 1950 Singer 99 this weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your MQ progress. Looking good! Have fun! :D
