wow, slow down for curves



In spite of signs that there are curves ahead I am beginning to pick up speed.



The curves are NOT hard.  But keeping all the colour combos straight and the diagonal shading rightly oriented is challenging.  I have already picked out one mistake. :(


It doesn't help that the design wall is across the hall!


The other challenge is that I am getting really nervous about how much fabric I actually have.  I am already making adjustments and substitutions!

And it is that time of the week to have a look at the Trans Canada Internet highway to see how my fellow  TN&TN's are doing.  I hope they are handling there curves with skill and speed!  :^)

Amazing challenging project you have there--some of the old traditional patterns took years to do by hand!

OMGoodness! How the heck do you do that? It will be awesome when finished but me thinks there is some serious concentration involved!

Looks like it will be a very pretty quilt. I made it in plaids a few years ago for my son.

That will be a very impressive quilt, so sorry that you risk running out of fabrics. Good luck!
