First, THANK YOU to everyone who offered their opinion on my moon dilemma! After reading all the advice and also talking to my Mom (who helpfully said that my moon looked like a crescent roll), I am definitely ditching the pieced moon I completed. I just don’t like it. It is too fussy. I’m pretty sure I’m going to applique a moon onto the background now, but I’ll of course test that out first before I do it.
At this point, the quilt hasn’t moved much further in terms of progress. I had a little vacation and I had to do some sewing in prep for that, and I’ve been doing a tiny bit of part-time work which has been taking away my free time, and and and…
But I’m back at work on the quilt! And none too soon since I have 3 baby boys who are all waiting for quilts right now, and this is just the 1st I need to do.
Two nights ago I cleaned my sewing room and found all the fabrics again as they had scattered everywhere in the intervening month, and then FINALLY last night I spent my time selecting and cutting all my fabric for the nine-patches.
Now I just need to get back to sewing – I can’t wait!
