each column and then long sashing in rows. We didn't finish, but we worked really well as a team!

1. Molly Mine crazy quilts squares
2. Linda Cutting down the excess
3. One row completed.


She is making it for a full/queen size bed. So as you can see there is a lot more to do. LOL...
I'm returning for a little bit to try and complete what we have on hand. :O)

Terre how much fun for you and Linda to be stitching up a quilt together - that has to be easier than just one of you doing it - can't wait to see it finished. Keep on stitching and thanks for the photo's. What a great sewing room.

I wasn't able to view your second photo - so I copy and pasted it and I lightened it some - so here it is:

That's the very same set of blocks that I've been working up the courage to get started on! Is that Tearaway Stablizer? And since the outer edges have been trimmed do you still use 1/4 in. seam? I know this is Newbie questions but I don't want to start until I'm sure I know what I'm doing!

Those are good questions, because before yesterday I couldn't have answered them. She used a mesh stabilizer. The square is stitched but we found some of them weren't quite the same size. Inside the square is a "cut-off" stitching where the design stopped so you can sew them together without bulk. But I highly recommend that you use a 6" square clear ruler and square each block before you sew them together.

How wonderful for the two of you. Isn't it great sharing a project with a friend and Cuties all seem to have so much in common.

Who SAYS women can't work together???!!! LOL!!!
I hope you spend many more productive days together.
Hugs n roses, Meganne

I bought some of those designs in the pics just the other day and am keen to try them. It was a good variety with the cat, roses, rooster and all sorts of other things. Plus, they were on special -always a good incentive! They look great and meeting up with fellow cuties is the best fun ever :) Thanks for posting the pics.
