My Quip – I Really Love Lucy – Progress Update - 96 Blocks

Good Day,

Well 96 - 8 ½” blocks for our original I Really Love Lucy quilt design have been completed. Each block is composed of nine Robert Kaufman Kona solid colors.

The block construction is paper-pieced in three parts. Then the three parts are pieced together to create each individual block. Each block, including the drafting of the paper-piecing copy, took approximately 1 hour 15 minutes to complete. And yes that is 120 hours, just to sew and create the blocks.


The next stage is the composition of each set of four blocks.


Just a quick update…

Enjoy,

Andy and Jim
