Partially Proficient

I was SO excited last night!!! I had been busily sewing along - I finally (finally) finished clue 5 and was ready to start on clue 6.... I got all the pieces cut for clue 6 andf sat down to sew.....

and I hadn't trimmed by clue 1 ( i think it was that clue) up... and they were just enough too big... that I couldn't fudge....

See all 4,000, 350 million little pieces?? Whooo hoo.... ( please don't look at my piles....)

And all my pretty pieces all cut up!!!

See - the trimmings - they are just a smudge too big, and just enought that I would know. Cuz you all KNOW I am not perfect.....

Fred was back again while I was sewing. I love the majesty of Fred... and I love when he dive bombs my window - scares the bejeebers out of me...

Off to Quilt - I am working on a Custom quilt ... and I am loving it!!!

Sounds like Fred is there to see all the beautiful Quilts of Valor you receive from around the country.

I did the same thing :)
I thought I could get away with no trimming, but I'm just not happy with how the star blocks came together. So now I am trimming up the blocks 4 at a time to sew each star.

Just looking at all your little pieces makes my wrist hurt. I may have to ask my 13 year old to do some of the cutting for me so that my wrist has time to recover from the 150 triangles I have cut.
