I hope you didn't think I fell into a black hole!  You know how we sometimes get hijacked on this interesting journey of life?  Well, that’s been happening a lot for moi these days, but I managed to negotiate a little time to myself.  I spent that time happily stitchin’ compass star and setting blocks, and next thing you know, a beautiful border appeared on my quilt!

As you know, I’m a rookie at this stuff.  Somerset is a really nice project for learning and practicing.  I recommend it highly to anyone with any level of experience.  If you are working on it, or have completed it, please share photos with us.

So….I started this project almost a year ago:  April 26ish, 2013.  Wonder if I can finish it before April 26^th this year?  The fourth (and final) installment calls for compasses, pinwheels, and a scrappy dogtooth border.  Sounds fun.  I think I will close for now so I can start cutting.  Thanks for your time.

Beautiful Progress, Little Effort - Somerset Medallion Quilt

What I like about this project is every tiny bit of work in results in noticeable and beautiful progress.  Like most of you, I have very little free time.  But I can sit down for a while every now and then and hand stitch some petals.  Next thing you know, they'll all be complete.

The project is presented in 4 installments throughout our 2013 line up.  Part 1 was in the Spring 2013 issue.  I'm now on Part 2, presented in the Summer 2013 issue.  Once wrapped up I'll be "current" by starting Part 3 in the Fall issue.  I plan to complete that before the final instructions are revealed in the Winter 2013 issue which will ship in October.

As you can see I am working on the flower petals.  If you read the last post, you'll recall that I failed to cut the vine fabric on the diagonal.  I haven't bought new fabric for the vine yet, so on with the petals!

Who else is working on this project?  I would LOVE to see your pictures.  Please share!
