Amish quilt update-July 7



Category: Amish quilt | Posted: Sun Jul 08, 2007 3:01 am

Tonight after we ate, I took my squares and needle and thread and went out to the table in our little backyard. I sewed 27 squares together in 75 minutes. That's approx. 3 minutes per square. There are approx. 40 stitches across the four inch square which makes it 10 stitches per inch. Anyway to add the 75 minutes to the 4 and 1/2 hours makes it 5 and 3/4 hours. It got too dark to do anymore. I decided to sew them by hand on the machine because I can do it sitting outside in the evenings. My sewing corner is hot. dooley

Well done Dooley in getting 27 squares done. 3 minutes per square is good going!!! Are you finding it quite easy to do? I'd like to tackle a quilt some time so am interested in knowing how you get on with yours.
