Welcome back to my quilty blog! This week was only slow stitching and prep time so let’s get to it!
Yes I will be linking up with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt.
WIP Update
Only the one this week!
Super Nova by Tula Pink; Floral Reef Colorway by Pink Door Fabrics
I finally finished cutting ALL 131 pieces for this first (center medallion) block. I started the first round before I finished cutting. While I was watching MidSummer Stitch and the World Cup on Saturday, I finished round 2 and attached round 3.
As you can see from the block instruction papers. After I finish all the seams on round 3, I will need to make 10 stars of the rainbow. When cutting, I numbered them in the order they will be attached. I am thinking I will add one black diamond to each star before I begin attaching round 4. Then I will have round 5 of black pentagons. Finishing off with the two different stripes shapes for round 6.
It took me almost 4 days to cut and glue all the shapes for Month 1 with this block taking 2 1/2 days. And those were like 6 hour days. I think the slow stitching will go quicker. Generally I set a goal of 15 – 30 minutes each time I work on my EPP.

Have a great week and good luck on your projects!!!!

Peggy both your Super Nova and your monthly colour blocks are beautiful. Thank you for sharing on To Do Tuesday. I enjoyed reading about the plan you have for the rest of Super Nova. It’s going to be stunning! 😁
