Pickledish Block One

Over the weekend I completed block one for my pickledish quilt. It went together surprisingly well. It is a bit wonky in spots but I know that once the whole quilt is pieced it won't be noticeable. Oh, pickledish I think I love you!

Oooh, this looks amazing, Laura! Great job! ;D

I started packing today, which is kind of late, considering I'm leaving in a week, but oh, well ... I tend to procrastinate A LOT :/. There's lots of stuff already there anyways. I took some things and David did too when he came here. Thanks for asking!

Hugs to Tex and Harry James! And to Lola, too!

Have a nice day! :)

Thanks Mary! I hope that as I go along I can piece them together quicker. I did the arches one day a couple weeks ago, and then this weekend pieced the block.

*Hugs* Miki. I bet it is exciting and slightly overwhelming all in one!
Thanks for the compliment on the quilt block. I dare say I enjoyed putting it together!

Tex, Harry, and Lola are napping...just what I want to do! ;)

ok...two comments in one day! sorry! how big is the block? It really looks lovely Laura and not one bit wonky. You did a great job!

Laura said...

Thanks Jacqueline! :)

Hi Mary, I just measured and it's 21 1/2 inches...so a little big. I think Aneela said they end up 20 inches when pieced with the other blocks.
I was surprised to see how large it is!
