2024 Stay at Home Round Robin: Week #6

It wasn't a bad week in the sewing room, but not making it up the sewing room for a couple of days last week really put me behind on my ongoing quilt alongs.  I did make good progress on the 2024 SAHRR, but wasn't able to finish off border #5 this weekend. 




The vertical borders are assembled, the left one is sewn on.  I ran out of steam today after I got the right border cut to size.  The last seven friendship star blocks are over at the sewing machine in various states of assembly. Border #6 has been drafted in EQ, but I haven't yet gotten started on the blocks.  I have till March 18th to finish off borders 5 and 6.  If I don't lose any more sewing days, I should have a finished quilt top by then.  

Linking up with Kathleen McMusing for the SAHHR quilt along.  And with my normal Monday linky parties: Monday Design Wall and Patchwork & Quilts.

  3. That last round is looking so good. The whole thing came together nicely. It's funny that I chose the Friendship Star too, but there is only ONE of them in my final border. I'm hoping to sew it onto the quilt today.

  5. Needing to assemble lots of little pieces for a border takes some doing, but it sounds like you're on the right track! This is looking good, Kate!

  6. I really like the way this is alternating between light and dark borders. With all the piecing the friendship star blocks take, I think you've made great progress and I hope the borders continue to come together smoothly between now and the final linkup!

  12. I really need to participate in this next year. It is fun to design a new border each month and watch it come together.
