Design Wall Monday, March 2, 2015

Before I knew what I'd be working on for my March UFO; I tackled some of the many 4-patches that I will be required for Korners.  This one is called Winston Ways from Bonnie Hunter.  It is one of my UFOs for 2015.  It is my #3 that hasn't been called yet.  These are the first six blocks (one thanks to Debra who made one too many for her project).  I have another four that will soon be ready for assembly once the 2 1/2" Bloc-Loc ruler squares up the two different HSTs.
I have a pile of 4-patches made that have been worked into the blocks.  The huge amount still yet to go is for the borders.  Everything is cut, just a matter of sewing.
Now that I know #4 is for March.  I set Korners aside for Kabuki.  My 2015 UFO list is full of Bonnie Hunter designs and this is another, Dancing Nine Patch.  Funny the first two, January and February, were both her designs too!
I had many leftover 2" units from previous projects so a great head start!  It will also be nice to see some room in my 2" scrap container.  There needs to be 36 9-patches.  Four will be used for the border along with piano keys and the rest get a 1 1/2" sashing on two sides. This one isn't that large a project finishing at 54" square.  After Sunday's sewing I have a enough 9-patches sewn to get me two Kabukis. Next up pressing...
Hope there is time in your schedule to see other wonderful projects through the links of Patchwork Times.

You are so good about actually getting monthly UFOs completed! Sounds like you have lots of "Bonnie" quilts to finish. I have two of her designs still in UFO stage, but I don't make as many quilts as you do. You are a piecing machine!! : )

I love these blocks. They are very attractive. It will look great.

Good job. you are ahead of the game. I will have to complete two quilts in March since I have been away from home. Lots of nine patches I bet you are so happy that you have that Bloc-Loc ruler, everyone that does scrappy quilts should have one as well.

Sounds like you are making really good progress on your UFOs. Good luck with March's project.
