Hi Everyone
Hope you are all keeping well. After an emotional week, things are starting to get back to a normality. I was able to paper piece loads of little black squares whilst watching the coverage of the Queen’s State Funeral. Also I have sewn the middle section together and attached it to the top section so 2/3rd’s of the quilt top are complete. Quite chuffed with how it is coming together.
Here is the picture of my progress …..

Just need to keep making loads of little black squares. By the way, my husband really likes it so added bonus. I have not got any vibes on how to quilt this as yet.
That is me, please now pop along to the other members listed below to see their progress.
This Hand Quilt Along is an opportunity for hand quilters and piecers to share and motivate one another. We post every three weeks, to show our progress and encourage one another. If you have a hand quilting project and would like to join our group contact Kathy at the link below.

Wow, that is coming together quickly. I saw some of the state funeral and intend to go back and watch some more when I’m sewing. The music and scripture at the beginning was wonderful.

Yes I thought the words and songs were gorgeous and the piper made me cry.

Yes it is and being my own design means re-hashing areas if I have miscalculated (often) is a good learning curve. It’s fun!

Me too – cried at the piper and passing Buckingham Palace for the last time. It was very dignified and emotional. King Charles looked exhausted.

I’m still getting a little frisson of shock hearing him referred to as King, but yes, I thought that too. The whole thing was so beautifully managed but incredibly sad.
