FNSI results...

**** here is the link to go and see what everyone was working on. http://www.sugarlane-designs.com/2017/02/february-fnsi-love-is-in-air.html ****

Over the past 2 weeks I have been working on this quilt. It was started by a friend and it was to be a gift for Xmas. Well, it got a bit too much for her so it was passed on to me to finish. This is what I have done so far.
Strip piecing cut into squares...

My strip piecing layered, stitched and cut.
Making lots of half square triangles.

A pile of squares sewn and cut.
Ready to iron open.

Opened up ..... Looking good
All trimmed ready for sewing.

Layout no 1.. random.

Layout no 2..
Layout no 2 it is...
 
The top so far. 
I still need to add borders. That will happen over the next week. It will end up about 66" x 93"


So I am linking up with Wendy for FNSI.
