Ages ago I blogged about the Civil War Quilt blocks from here... Finally I got some daylight hours to get to this stage. The blocks were meant to finish at 8 1/2 inch... A few to many did not (not just me suffered this!).
It is a relief to get to this point - they have been hanging around to be done like a bad smell. I need to decide how I'm going to quilt it. Do you know how quilts from the Civil War times were quilted? I am going to try to replicate this using my sewing machine (I know I know).

Sigh* I still have not started on my quilt. I thought the FB support group was going to be good for me but I've still dodged it. I will just have to live vicariously through you
Have a peep over here http://sentimentalquilter.blogspot.com.au/
and see Civil War machine quilting.
Hi Sarah, you are so brave. Be sure to break out the Green & Black's with butterscotch for this one!
