My Quilty 365 – The Final Frontier is coming along great. The longest diagonal row has been attached and now they all get shorter from here – but that also means I need to get busy and make more circles!
This stack of 31 blocks is all that is left in my project box from the around 200 that I had when I started to put my rows together! I have another 25 or so in the living room in another box ready to applique.
When I got the long row attached with the sashing I got out the tape measure to see where it was at – 98 inches!! once the setting triangles are squared off and I add another indigo sashing around the outside – a little wider than what is here now it will be wide enough and long enough – I was aiming for 100 inch square at minimum. EDITED: I am linking to Audrey’s Quilty 365 post for April 30th – although this post was written early in the week I went back and found it.
Another angle – now for all the rest of the rows I will need to move that big coffee table out of the way for a photo – I do have easy glides underneath it so it makes moving it a little easier. I am linking to Sarah’s Confessions of a Fabric Addict today and Sew Fresh Quilts.
It was a very humid warm day yesterday – we actually put the A/C on it was so humid – very uncomfortable – storms coming in – so that is why I got done with some sewing – it was too muggy outside to sit and enjoy the porch all morning! Hope to get some more sewing done tomorrow.
We had very high humidity late afternoon as well and I remember thinking that “This is just WRONG for April” !! : ) Final Frontier looks absolutely stunning!
You got some really great shots of your Final Frontier… I really am liking it 🙂 I had to play catch up with your blog! lol (been very busy here and planning a post soon!) Hope the bad weather doesn’t impact you much friend! Kathi
I’m really loving FF!
It was very humid here, too. We finally broke down and turned on the air conditioner before we headed out to my chemo. It was downright chilly when we got home and was only going to get chillier, so I had to turn the heat on before we went to bed.
Wow! The Final Frontier is looking great. And BIG!!!
Your Final Frontier is growing my leaps and bounds. So pretty with all the colors.
Final Frontier looks great, and a wonderful way to use up scraps. It’s the sashing that pulls it together and enhances it so well. I may just have to make a similar one from my scraps and you know what they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Final Frontiers looks great so far! Very different from what you usually do. It will be interesting to see how you end up quilting this one!
I think your quilt is looking wonderful! Hugs,
Final Frontier is looking great!! The Fossil Fern fabric is just perfect for this quilt….Looking forward to following along as you make your way to a finish!!
Love the way this looks! I am not a fan of making BIG (that;s my Mom’s dept), but this is going to spectacular.
This is looking gorgeous Karen…. Envious of your heat by the way, it has reverted to winter here in the UK brghhhh xx
I love how you’re building your Quilty 365 project. You’re going to have a great finish!
Hi,
Awesome layout. I haven’t even started that part yet.
Have a great day!
This looks wonderful with the on-point setting and the sashing. You’re more than halfway through! Congrats!
It’s so fun to see your circles taking shape into a quilt! It looks wonderful!
Your circle quilt is coming along amazingly, love the bright colours & the on point setting!
A large quilt! It’s looking so good too.:)
