Progress(o)


Já comecei a cortar os tecidos para o coin quilt: 108 rectângulos de padrões entre o azul, o encarnado, o cor-de-rosa e o branco. Agora vem a parte aborrecida: cortar 109 rectângulos brancos. E a seguir virá a parte mais gira: escolher a localização de cada rectângulo... mal posso esperar!

I have already started cutting fabrics for the coin quilt: 108 blocks in blue, red, pink and white. Now comes the monotunous part: cutting 109 solid white rectangles. And then it'll come the fun part: choosing where each print goes... I can't wait!

  2. Phew! Hard work. You kind of have to celebrate after cutting all those white pieces, don´t you? :)

    You inspire me to try to make a quilt. Some time when I have the right fabrics for it, and the patience, I have to do it! :-)

    If you want to feel even more happy about the Portugese weather I can give you a report from spring in Stockholm which today had 2 degrees + and snow on the streets. Please send us some sun!

  3. Wow, the more I look at it, the better it gets. This must turn into a great project, you can't miss. Good luck with it! I may even follow doing this when I feel 'good enough'.

  8. Salut Laurence!

    Une lectrice de mon blog m'a dit que ces épingles s'appellent 'flat flower pins'... vous pouvez les trouver là:

  9. Ai Constança! Esta tua tia precisa de um glossário para perceber ntudo!
    O que é um coin quilt? Parece que todas sabem menos eu. :-)
