Slow Sunday Stitching

I had time this week to do part of the block that is on the front cover of the book.  The house still needs some work, but I needed something in my to-go bag.  I got this star completed this week.  One step closer... still enjoying the process.  :)



I've been working from Cheryl Wall's book Welcome Home.  I really like the quilt designs in the book.  The instructions are illustrated nicely.  They are easy to follow.  The only thing I don't like about the book is that the instructions are cut, sew, cut, sew...  I sat one day and just wrote out all the cutting instructions on pages and pages of notebook paper to help streamline the process when it comes to stitching the blocks.  Other than that, I LOVE the book!

 
I'm linking up to Slow Sunday Stitching at Kathy's Quilts.  The place for today's linky party is here. It's another gorgeous day outside here in Ohio.  The Cleveland Indians didn't win the World Series, BUT second place isn't that bad.  Have a great week, everybody!

Love the house! I agree, those kind of instructions make me crazy--so inefficient! Good idea to write them out and make life easier.

Glad you are enjoying the process... that's the most important part!
