I am excited to share this 3 weeks update with you. Since starting this Capital T Block quilt over a year ago, I hav finally finished piecing all her blocks together. Here is where I was at our last posting.
A week of heavy snow and home bound, I really got so much accomplished. Here is where I am now with the top totally put together.
I have ordered a flat sheet in the maroon and I hope the color I choose will be a good match. I have not added the two side border pieces yet but they are cut out and ready to be attached. On that bottom left corner block, a tad to small, I will add a small extension piece and it will be fine.
Not always thrilled with my color choices as I was working with this, I am happy with how it has turned now.
Thank you for stopping in and checking on my progress. Please take a moment to visit the pages of the others in the group. There’s so beautiful hand work being done.

never fails to amaze me how the same block can look sooooo different depending on fabrics used!

I totally agree, it’s amazing what fabric choice can do to change what we see. I tend to like the solid with a not so patterned 🙂

I really love how this turned out! All the blocks together look very nice. I agree that adding just a bit more in that lower corner is not going to make a different. Great job! https://stitchingirlblog.wordpress.com/
