Star Crazy BOM – September

by Karen on September 9, 2010

Only 9 days in to the month and I finished my September assignment for the Star Crazy quilt!!  I am glad that is out of the way and now I can get back to my quilting on the two quilts that I am hand quilting.  I really want to finish these two before continuing on the Red/Green appliqué blocks and the Dear Jane triangles.  Oh and lets not forget that Bow Tie blocks that I started back in May and June – I took them along on our trip and never touched them. But I want to finish up a few things first.  I really do want to stick with two quilts at a time if I can and make progress on finishing things already started.

The September blocks:

Next months assignment has a lot of Irish Chain Blocks – I might just look at the photos of the blocks we need and start cutting out the squares.  Because I am doing my quilt scrappy that means I need a lot of 1 1/2 inch blocks of various colors.  I need to pull down one of the scrap boxes and take bits and pieces from it to use more up.

It is another rainy day – leftovers still from the tropical storm that hit Texas.  Arkansas really needed the rain but I must admit to tiring of it!  I don’t mind a rainy day now and then especially when I know we need it but the last 10 days or so we have had quite a few rainy days.  I’m ready for some sunshine – this humidity is tiresome.
