I haven't done much quilting lately. My quilt room is probably the hottest room in my house. I have central air conditioning but it never seems to really cool off the upstairs. Someday I'll need to invest in better insulation.
I'm also busy taking care of a very busy 5 (he'll tell you 5 and a HALF) year old. The other day I tried to sneak upstairs. Just for yuks I counted... I made it to 19 before both Cubby AND Chloe were at the quilt room door.
Next night. OK, that's the way it's supposed to go.
Finally. Here is Terry's finished block. At this rate it would take me HOW LONG? to make enough blocks for a quilt?
Today's rain (finally!) has reminded us that cooler, quilting weather is on the way.
It's been a warm summer (ok 'hot' but you'll never find me complaining about the heat because I really hate being cold) but I'm not ready to give up on summer quite yet.

I've often had to rip out a "one last seam" done late at night. Worse is rotary cutting "one last strip" and finding out it is 1/2" too narrow. :)
I love seeing Terry's block!
I hate to admit it, but it took me a couple of minutes to figure out what was "wrong" with the block ---I made the first nine patches the opposite way --- and it wasn't even late at night!
Carol, I made the first set of nine patches backwards too but that was the night before!
I love those blocks, regardless of your "interpretation" of the pattern. Thanks!
