I really hope I get to see the finished product in person!Anne:https://www.blogger.com/profile/06636934400073633630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5446530902700220228.post-34983502196135399742011-12-19T00:03:41.967-05:002011-12-19T00:03:41.967-05:00This quilt is going to be beautiful!

I'll let you in on my tips ...Thanks, Jennifer! I'll let you in on my tips and tricks once I figure them out, but one thing I already know - I can't imagine doing it without the FastTRIM rulers (or whatever they're called). I could never have done it with templates! I also know that I'm going to have to make one for me, because I've just loved the design for forever! I can't wait for the weekend when I'll have enough light to take some pictures of the progress...and as I'm ironing the columns, I'm looking longingly at my pile of fabric for my big Chasing Chevrons. I need a slow day at work so I can finish planning out my cuts (or I just need to order some more of my Kona solid so I don't have to be so careful!) Maybe I'll see if any of my LQS have the color, just in case! Now that I'm happy with my final fabric selection, I just can't wait to begin, and I think it's actually going to go together really fast! I think I'll time it since I have no sense of these things, but I'm guessing 15-20 hours from when I make my first cut to get the top together. Though it will likely depend on how good my audible book is...I do find myself sometimes just sitting and listening in the gripping parts of some of the recent Tess Gerritsen books I've been sewing along to. :)Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129822128164340288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5446530902700220228.post-42393478954244360092011-12-14T16:03:10.077-05:002011-12-14T16:03:10.077-05:00This is going to be a wonderful quilt!
