I continued to work on “Insanity Revisited” last night and then again today and I managed to get two more blocks done. One more block needed for row 10 and that row will be ready to attach to the others!
Block 11, Row 10 - another with ovals - this one was easier though!
Row 10 block 12. I am not aiming for perfection, little mistakes are seen throughout this quilt. I just want to finish it and I do not take things apart and fix if I notice something is not quite right unless it is really bad! A little bit of lint here and there - the whites spots will brush off. Also some of those specks might be from the glue stick - I glue basted the handle down before I appliqued it.
I have settled on this stencil for the 2 inch wide sashing. There are two designs on this stencil as you can see - I will be using the lower one for the 2 inch white sashing and I might use the other one for the black outer border. I am not sure yet. For the inside of the blocks I am thinking more of a geometric shape. I had thought a daisy but because of all the colors in this quilt it could be for a boy or girl and seeing as I do not have any plans right now for it I thought it would be better to have it for an either or. The ruler on the orange block is one that I am fooling around with to come up with a geometric shape - maybe a square in a square on point ending as a 8 point star maybe?
Several people asked where did I find this pattern “So Charming”. Here is the link to the pattern. The Twiddle Tail Store. Go to the bottom of the page and you will see the pattern there. This store is from Anina and her blog is here. There are several more patterns in her store that I would like — but I’m waiting for a little while for any shopping as you all know until Paducah quilt show is over

those blocks look so good, you are so far. I have never used a glue stick but have been reading alot of articles where people use them but it seems like your thread and needle would be stickey. I guess I will have to try it.
Wonderful Insanity! I was wondering how do you transfer your quilting patterns onto the top? Do you trace with a pencil, use powder? What is your favorite method?

Your blocks look fine to me. I know what you mean about not “fixing” things with the DJ blocks, there is so much to look at little imperfections are invisible.

Your insanity revisited looks fantastic!! I can’t see any imperfections. This will be one awesome quilt when it is complete! Love the quilting that you will be doing on the So Charming quilt too.
