Look what's on my design wall!

I skipped posting a few steps with this quilt but it is on the design wall now, Yeah! What do you think? I would of never picked these shades of purple but they really seem to work. I originally had rusts and browns pick out but they didn't do anything for this top. Hopefully there will be lots of sewing this weekend.

Making slow progress...

Still sewing the half square triangles. Hopefully, I will have some pictures this weekend.

Step 1 - complete!

I finally finished step 1 of the Old Tobacco Road mystery quilt! 182 4 patches and 8 half 4 patches. Yeah!! I am working on step 2 now.....388 half square triangles, no that isn't a typo, it may be awhile before I have something to post on step two.

I finished a customer quilt this morning so as soon as I get permission to post the quilt I will show you.

Four Patches

Still sewing four patches! Not much sewing will be going on here until Tuesday evening.

Old Tobacco Road

I have my fabric cut! I am going to use these plain homespun fabrics. I cut muslin to go with them but didn't like how bla they looked.

So I picked out some more plaid homespun to go with them. I think I like this a lot better. Sorry about the flash in the photo. I'm not sure if I'm going to put the browns/earth tones with them or something else for the 3 1/2" strips. After tonight I will be behind on the mystery so I might wait and see what the other color is used for before I decide. If you are doing the mystery leave me a comment so I can get your link to follow your progress on your blog. If your aren't doing the mystery you can still leave me a comment. I love to read all the comments you leave me.
