I thought it would be fun to keep a diary of my current quilting projects so you could follow along with my progress (or lack thereof) towards completion. I’ve included clickable thumbnails so you can view larger images as I go along.

Sudoku Quilt

I finally got around to doing a Sudoku quilt, which has been on my list for a couple of years.  This will be a wall hanging with a finished size of 24 x 24. It is roughly based on McCall’s Quick Quilts version. I reduced the size, spiffed up the sashing, and increased the proportion of the border. Here you see it basted and marked with symbols for each of the squares. I plan to hand quilt.

Sampler Quilt: Borders

I’ve added the final border to the quilt and hand basted using Sharon Schamber’s hand-basting technique. This baby is now relegated to my PIP (projects in progress) pile until I finish the matching afghan. I’ll be machine quilting but have not yet decided on the patterns…am leaning towards individual block patterns since this is a sampler…
