The squares are small and progress is slow and steady. This is probably my favorite kind of piecing, and to some extent it is perseverance sewing. However, I don't get bored piecing endless four-patch units as I enjoy the color and fabric play and just know that the final result will be well worth the effort.
Started a new project?
ReplyDeleteOf course you have!!
You never stop!!!!!
And this one is looking just as gorgeous as its predecessors.

Love the colourful look so far - can't wait to see the end result.
ReplyDeleteI love the look of small patchwork! This one looks great so far as usual.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! You haunt me in a good way! I just love where you go!
ReplyDeleteLooks just wonderful. The colours are so fresh. It's a beauty and I can't wait to see the final quilt.
ReplyDeleteRita - I love when you debut a new project! The colors are fabulous! Quick question for you on piecing accurately. I think you prewash your fabric...do you starch when you iron? While I think my 1/4" seam has gotten much better, it seems that my cutting isn't as consistent and I'm having a hard time getting those corners to line up. Advice??
ReplyDeleteAnother beauty in the works!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I guess it begs the question...how small are they?
ReplyDeleteoh, I have a stack of little scrap squares in search of a project - this is making me think that maybe they should be fourpatches :)
ReplyDeleteWhat defines a "four patch unit"? I tried to figure it out from looking at your quilt but I can't tell.

This looks wonderful, as all your quilts do! I have to try one of these quilts with mini-squares!
ReplyDeleteHow small are your squares? 2&1/2"? Do you actually cut each square individually or hurry the process up by sewing 2 strips together and then cutting into 2 &1/2" sewn pairs of squares?
ReplyDeleteLovely fabrics, as always!
As always I love the colours! Gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteyou are an unstoppable force of nature!
ReplyDeleteLooks great so far!!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you mostly used full white, but then sometimes switched and used a white fabric with a little bit of a print showing on it.
ReplyDeleteOh that looks great!
ReplyDeleteThat's a LOT of little bitty pieces, Rita! Once again, I'm in awe of your skill and your patience!
ReplyDeleteLove a good 4 patch x
ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful, so vibrant, I love it!
ReplyDeleteJust curious, why four squares rather than long strips of squares?
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely and so colourful and cheerful looking.
ReplyDeleteMy wonderful quilt arrived yesterday - I did send you an email. Thank you so very much it is gorgeous and I love it.
Oh my..............How beautiful is your work, your use of colors. Your quilts!!! Such fabulous inspiration. Great photos! Thanks for such a beautiful blog! It all looks so very very perfect!
ReplyDeleteEither you have great perseverance, or you are just perseverating (ha ha). Either way, it is going to be a gorgeous and happy quilt.
