Good day and welcome to my blog. We are having wonderful Spring weather in the American Midwest.
Last week I wrote about my New Start: a pattern called This and That, from the Free patterns page of Quilted Twins.
I am happy to report that I have made a lot of progress this past week! I am rereading the directions to be sure I have the sashing sewn together correctly. Then I add it to the 16 patch blocks I have prepared. The top currently looks like this:
And a close up, so you see the sashing:
Each 16 patch block finishes at 6 inches square. I really like the framing of each block, and how this is turning out. So much so, that I am looking at my yellow-orange-red scraps, fat quarters, and left over jelly roll strips, and thinking of doing this pattern again in those colors.

In other news: I went to a quilt show with vendors and didn't buy any fabric! But I did buy a vintage sewing box that is missing a handle but still works very well. Closed:
And open:
