Design Wall Monday - 7/9/12

Why is it we I always set our my goals too high to possibly accomplish everything? I worked hard this weekend and worked on everything on my honey-do list - I just didn't finish a single thing. The only one I absolutely wanted to finish was the hexie top...and I got oh sew close!

I've listened to 4 or 5 audio books while working on the mothership since last week. The panic did set in yesterday when I realized I was on my last book and would need to order more from the library which is gonna take a few days to get here...


This is what's left of my design wall - much whiter than I am used to in the last few weeks! I pulled the pieces apart so you can see what I have left: finish transforming the half diamond into a full diamond, fill in the last 10 black hexies. These smaller pieces will then be attached to the mothership and then I can heave the biggest sigh of relief that I am sure all y'all will hear where ever you may be :)


As the pieces are assembled I can remove more and more hexie papers which are saved in this large Ball jar awaiting the next project. Since I am almost to the point of this quilt being a stay at home project for quilting and binding...I need to pick another hexie project to keep me out of trouble at lunch :) Decisions, Decisions.

It's going to be a beautiful quilt. Removing hexie papers are almost as bad as tearing away the paper on a paper piecing block. Have a great week.

Congratulations on making progress--those finishes are great, but only get there stitch by stitch :) I think you are powering through this like crazy and in my world maybe one section would be started, let alone a mothership!!lol
