What’s On My Design Wall

ob0301

Friday night and all day Saturday, I attended a local PhD retreat — Projects Half Done — sponsored by a local quilt shop. In keeping with the theme of Projects Half Done and to work on this year’s UFO list, I took my Orca Bay to work on.

No, I did not do all of that this past weekend.  I just those purple string triangles that I have stacked up in a square. Yesterday I took stock of what I had done before packing the project away for another retreat.  I was afraid that I had more star blocks to make, but it turns out I have nearly 70 +/- QST extra units. Whew!

So, now I have completed all of the clues up through 6.  In clue # 7, I have 4 more black & white triangle units to make and I need to cut neutral triangles for the border. The box has not been put back on the shelf, so I may go ahead and cut the remaining pieces so it will be ready to go for the next retreat.

The shamrock is either a wall hanging or the first block of a new quilt – I haven’t decided yet. It was made as part of the fun and games at the retreat.

Next week, I hope to show progress on Eeyore, but we’ll see. I’ve started the border on the shawl….

Check out the links over at  Patchwork Times. I’m sure we’ll see some great inspiration.
