This is as far as I got when I called it a night last night.
We had storms forecasted for Sunday evening and early Monday morning. We got a wee bit of the storm,but not as much as the upper mitten part of Michigan received. So I didn't have to be at the kid's house until 8 am. I worked a bit more on the block.
This evening when I got home I finished it up. After making several mistakes. Mistakes that made it so that I had to recut 2 sets of squares to finish up the block.
I have a couple of projects that I needed some background fabric. I wanted some of Lizzie House's mini pearl bracelets in the white on white. Before we left for vacation I found it, and had a super coupon so I purchased it for less than $8 per yard.
I also had an inkling for a certain look for my guild challenge. Of course I decided I wanted something which is not easy to locate. I got lucky and found some Allison Glass Bike Path white on white on Etsy so now I can start on my guild challenge quilt.
I got my ends all tied into my quilt. I found fabric. Now I need to measure the quilt and cut binding. Maybe that will be finished this week.
It is always frustrating when a mistake requires re-cutting fabric. Your block turned out great though. I love your white fabrics!
