I didn't get a lot of quilting done this week, as I was cleaning for company.
Tangerine and Teal was finished last Wednesday. Read more about it here.
I finally cut out the pieces for the wedding ring arcs. The new Judy Neimeyer pattern has instructions for strip piecing the arcs. I tried it, but didn't enjoy it. I'd rather piece with rectangles. It took about 2 hours to cut out 1280 rectangles- enough for 160 arcs! I think I'll try working on 20 at a time.
I'm not sure what will become of these fussy cut hexies. I think they look like gears.
In a never-ending attempt to get organized, my husband helped me hang some decorative shelves in our bedroom. I thought I wanted a ladder in this corner, but I can put a lot more quilts on these shelves.
I had to snap a pic of the dining room table cleared off. It lasted only 3 days and things are piling up already.
Have a fun Wednesday!

Strip piecing is not my favorite thing to do either...made me laugh on those hexies looking like gears...you should go with that theme in a quilt!
yikes RE: your latest quilt! I made one ONCE but thankfully it had solid arcs. but still. Good for you! And love your quilt shelves!
Spectacular table runner! 💗
Wow-o, that's amazing! I love the blue and orange.
I have a Judy Neimeyer pattern that was making me bonkers until I just said - forget it, I'm doing it my way! I think she has amazing pattern patterns and designs but is for a totally different personality type than me. :)
Great quilt!
... but it's those hexes as gears that really grabbed my imagination :-)
lovely quilt, colours work s very well together I quite like strip piecing. love your table runner and the shelves do a great job showing us all your quilts.
