Accomplishment!

Yesterday I was able to sew three of the blocks for Mr. P's quilt and today I finished the last two.
Here are all them together. I know how I want to set them but I need to buy some fabric for the sashing. These blocks are from a quilt that Dawn Heese designed. You can see her quilt here. I am going to set my differently because I don't want my quilt to be a square. Stay tuned to see my setting. Thanks for sharing your quilt with us, Dawn.
 So this week I will work on my row along from Lori Holt's blog, the mittens row.  Until tomorrow I will go ahead and continue my hand quilting and link up to Kathy's blog for Slow Sunday Stitching.

Kudos go to LynCC of What a Hoot!,  and Mama T of Mama T Keeps you in Stitches. and Simone de Klerk for finishing their first UFO!  You go girls!

With Passion,
Carrie P.

  11. Congrats on your progress. Your blog title made me smile to see Accomplishment! I felt that way this weekend as I made progress on my ufo's. I just hope I can keep it up. I am going to post each week on what I have accomplished too - although it might not be a finished quilt for awhile.
