Modified Betwixt Progress


 I will not lie...this quilt is taking a mind/hand/eye numbing amount of repetition of cutting, piecing, sewing,  pressing and rinsing and repeating.

 I'm fortunate to have a large sewing space above our garage (attached to our house).  I have a large design wall (made from  8 x 48 foam board duct taped together and covered with batting).  I use jewelry 2 pronged pins to hold up quilt tops when I'm crafting the backing (e.g. pieced).  But individual blocks stay up fine so long as the ceiling fan is not on high!

While I work I like to binge watch programs.  Yes, I could look at something educational...but I spend tons of time working my brain...so binge watching is q guilty pleasure
