Saturday was cold and snowy, Sunday was cold and sunny. Both were great days to stay in and hang out in the sewing room. Which is what I did after tackling laundry and finally dragging all the stuff out so I could put the Christmas tree away.
Most of the weekend was spent piecing the rest of the test tube blocks for Potions.

Once I figured out the seam allowances, the test tubes went together pretty quickly. Next step is to make all the beaker blocks. When the lights went off in the sewing room last evening all the beaker pieces were cut. Next time I'm in the sewing room those blocks will be at the top of my list. I suspect they will be just as fiddly as the test tubes were.
Linking up with Monday Making over at Love Laugh Quilt and Design Wall Monday at Small Quilts and Doll Quilts.

The test tubes look great! Good luck with the beakers. This is going to be such a fun quilt!
Those are fun looking test tubes! Sylvia spoke at my guild last year; I've been a fan of her quilts and designs for several years; it will be fun to see your version of this one!
I love watching your progress on Potions. Makes me wish I had a scientist in the family.
Oh, how fun this quilt will be. Love all those bright and happy colours. Some of the piecing does indeed look fiddly.
Look at you go! It’s looking great. I’m looking forward to seeing the beakers come together. I love all those coloful “chemicals.”
sorry for the power outage or was that you flipped the light off? The test tubes look great and on to the beakers. Have a great week.
Congratulations on getting the test tubes done and all the prep ready for the beakers. Did you find chain stitching to help with them at all?
Getting things cut and ready to go is sure a time saver. I used all my sewing time on Saturday to cut, and then my Sunday was spent working on the blocks I had prepped. The test tubes are all so cute, so I'm sure the next set will be just as cute.
Love your block!
Great job - the test tubes look so fun!
The test tubes do look like fun. A great project for SIT.
