Here are half of the circus quilt blocks — they are so much faster to stitch than the alphabet blocks. Two more rows and then I’ll start drafting the elephant border which I hope works okay with the size of my blocks. It would probably be more efficient to design the whole quilt at once, but I never seem to be able to do that — I prefer to just make decisions as I go.
These stripes are sort of a drag to deal with in the cornerstones. I’m not usually ultra-precise when sewing and this job requires precision and lots of pinning. The matching is not perfect, but I’m okay with it.
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!
I think the slightest bit of wonkiness in the cornerstones just gives it a bit of ‘circus tent in the wind’ vibe. Really great fabric for the theme!
Oh Wow!!! It looks AWESOME!!! So cute! I especially like the clown, which is funny because I usually don’t – they always scared me as a kid. This is the PERFECT circus!
I like the cornerstones too. Such a little touch, but what an impact! I also like them a little wonky! Makes ’em charming!
Those that have all the decisions and plans made before they start are set way apart from me. I am making do as I go! At least somewhat in some things…
I like the cornerblocks being…human!
