In November, when I made my last Endeavourers quilt, I invested in a sizzix machine and a second hand circle die from Ebay (because I thought I would never be accurate enough with hand cutting) and I also received a selection of other dies including this 9″ Double wedding ring block. I wanted to try it out but I don’t think I have the time or patience to make a whole quilt with it so, when I heard about the SAHRR on Wendy’s blog, I decided to join in and use it to cut the pieces for my centre block.
It is a bit big but, after considering using 1 or 4 blocks, I felt I needed these 9 to get the benefit of the pattern. Luckily there are no quilt police!
(Apologies for the photos – indoor light at this time of year, here, is not the best)
Today I am linking up my centre block with Gail @ Quilting Gail and I will be visiting each of the SAHRR co-host bloggers, and anyone else who has linked up, to see their centre blocks. Then I will be following this schedule and adding a border a week…
- January 22: 1st Round: Wendy @ Pieceful Thoughts of My Quilting Life
- January 29: 2nd Round: Anja @ Anja Quilts
- February 5: 3rd Round: Emily @ The Darling Dogwood
- February 12: 4th Round: Brenda @ Songbird Designs
- February 19: 5th Round: ME!!! @ Quilting Gail
- February 26: 6th Round: Kathleen @ Kathleen McMusing
- March 18: Parade: showing all of your finished SAHRRs!
I’m really looking forward to seeing how these quilts all grow over the next couple of months.
Happy Sewing!
