Title: Yellow Summer two-color quilt in progress
Post by: SunnySkies on August 31, 2018, 16:06:06 PM

Here's what I'm working on, a simple yellow summer quilt. The yellow fabric is a 1930's style reproduction. It requires about 220 blocks for a queen bed and I've 170 done so far. It will be ready for next summer. Although making so many blocks might sound like torture, it's been very enjoyable. Love those new titanium sewing machine needles! Karen

That's a lot of blocks. It's looking very pretty, though, @SunnySkies

What a pretty fabric - it's looking lovely. I'm trialling the titanium coated needles too. They seem to punch through the layers more smoothly somehow. Won't know for some time whether they last a lot longer though.  -<

That does look very summery....it's going to be a very pretty quilt.  I'm trialling some Topstitch Titanium needles with my current project and am loving them also.
