Welcome to the link-up for BOMs Away Mondays!
Where we share what we're doing on a BOM-type project
so they don't stall out in UFO-land!
(Linky at the bottom.)
All the remaining section sets for Marissa's Dahlia were finished:
2/3 of the border sections for our king-sized Dahlia were finished:
And, this weekend I got the first three swan blocks sewn together:
Those three swans took SEVEN AND A HALF HOURS of work!
I do really love them, though. And I'm glad I don't have to give them attention again until October. . . heh!
It's official, also - I greatly prefer paper piecing to the multi-layered stitch-and-flip technique in these patterns. It's easier to be perfectly accurate, and also uses significantly less fabric.

Now your turn: How are your BOMs doing lately?
Kate over at Katie Mae Quilts has joined me in hosting this meet-up,
and linking up from either end puts you on the party at both sides.
You did have a productive week! Can't wait to see dahlia all sewn together. Those swans are so graceful. I also prefer the accuracy of paperpiecing. PP can be challenging to catch onto but once you do, there's no turning back. Have a wonderful week of stitching!
ReplyDeleteWow, those swans are amazing! Lynette you are talented to have them work out so perfectly. Happy Stitching!
ReplyDeleteThose swans and that dahlia are all just stunning!! I don't even know what to say about them; my jaw is just hanging down and flopping around in amazement! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
