Monday Making

What are you making this week??

There's a linky today if you want to share.

I had a get together Friday

and a group of us put some of these together

for a high school graduate

requesting a YELLOW quilt.

Many hands make LIGHT work.

;)

I'm now trimming them

making them all JUST the right size.

To make this simple block:

I began by cutting 6" wide strips.

(Width of fabric)

Then I cut them into 10" segments.

There was VERY little waste.

I was able to get FOUR pieces out of each strip.

With a small stack of different colors together...

I cut diagonally.

I didn't cut them ALL the same way.

Some are cut ONE way...

some the other.

Using two pieces from the stack...

I joined them.

We had a nice stack of blocks

in NO TIME!

I am now trimming them UP to 5 1/2"x 9 1/2"

It's going to take of LOT of these to make a quilt.

What are YOU making this week????
