Design Wall Monday

I have revisited my Orca Bay this week.  I finished my blue strip squares I was missing and now working on black and neutral half square triangles.  I calculated that I need 200 more of the half squares and once those are done I can finish assembling the last half of the top and should have enough for the border.  Bonnie Hunter is starting her new mystery quilt called Easy Street.  It starts on the 23rd so hopefully that will be enough push for me to finish assembling Orca Bay.

 

Since I last posted on a Monday Design Wall I have finished all my 4 patches (588) I need for my Midnight Flight.  I am now working on the 2.5 x 4.5 rectangles for the block, I have 70 of the 392 completed and throwing in a few half squares every now and then.

Design Wall Monday

I decided to start working on another quilt even thou I have several WIP's that I could finish.

I saw the block in one of Quiltmaker's 100 Block Tours and it's by Bonnie Hunter called Midnight Flight.  I drew my layout in EQ7 for a king size quilt a few months ago and purchased the red and cheddar color fabrics I needed but never started it until now.  I also drew the quilt with pieced borders but I see how I feel about them when I get that far on the quilt.

 



 

Over the weekend I finished half of the 4 patch blocks I need - 294 of the 588.

 

 

I took a break from sewing the 4 patch blocks and Midnight Flight block - now only 48 more to go.
