The TeaCup Quilt

I started writing this post a week ago, at which time I started it with the line, “Well August is upon us. How on earth did that happen!?”, and now we’re two weeks in. How on earth did THAT happen?!

Back in April we (read: our craft group) started working on a teacup quilt. It was one of those things where we loved this pretty tea party fabric, and wanted to make a wall hanging out of it, but it didn’t belong to a pattern we liked (or as far as were aware, any pattern at all).

So Nana set out to make her own pattern with the odd shaped sections of fabric we had. Lets just say that it has NOT been an easy task, hence it being August already, and we’ve not started it.

Last Tuesday at craft group we decided to bite the bullet and sacrifice parts of the fabric in order to easy the planning and quilt making process.

I think it’s going to work well once it’s all put together. We’ve divided the quilt into three sections, so tomorrow we plan on putting the first section together, and then I can start the embroidery for it as well.

This is going to make my list of quite big projects rather long… Hopefully I have them all finished by the end of the year!

Thanks for visiting my site again! keep checking back for more updates!
