Seriously? #8? I can't believe it. I'm making actual progress on this quilt. I need to start thinking about how I am going to do the wavy binding strips. I'd like to do the waves, but I'm not sure I'm good enough at binding to do wave edges. Will definetly need to practice on something else.
I got a little bit of bearding on this one, not as bad as the first two squares, so I clearly need to make sure I'm changing my needle more often.
This design is Leah Day's Brain Coral, but I think it looks like oil slicks. Maybe because I echoed more than she did.
I'm happy with this one.
I have #9 in progress- pebbling, and not sure what to do with #10- I had a great idea for it, but it didn't really work out. I don't know if I should keep trying to adapt what I have, rip out what I have, or see if I can find the backing fabric so I can just start over from scratch on this one. #10 is the first one I've been disappointed with... I'm of a mind to just finish it, and then decide if it needs to be done from scratch. It seems like ripping it out (it's about 1/3 done) is not a viable option.

This quilt is looking just fabulous! You are doing such an awesome job! I can't wait to see it come together.
Gorgeous! I love the pink background - it makes me think of Candy Land for some reason. As for the bearding - what felt or batting are you using? That can sometimes play a role, but it might also be the silk organza too if it's pulling from the front.
Keep going! Only 5 left to go!
