I’m so happy with my progress on my Hugs & Kisses on the Grand Canal quilt! I just need to finish up the letter X blocks and then I can assemble the top. Here are some progress pictures so far.
Snowballing the corners of the letter O center blocks:
Corner cut offs from the snowballed blocks. I’m going to use them to make a matching pillow, I think.

I just need to press the top and bottom rows and assemble the letter X blocks and then I can put the top together. I put together this preview in EQ7 and I think it’s going to be so pretty when it’s finished! 🙂
Wow, that’s a great amount of progress. The HST trimmings alone are amazingly impressive!
Great blocks and such a beautiful pile of trimmings!!
Definitely pretty! You are so organised – you have a production line going on! Thanks for joining up with us at #scraptasictueday
