It's day 7! That means tomorrow is day 8 and we're ⅓ of the way there! My Stonehenge fabric should be here later on today so I'm pretty excited about that!
Today's block was pretty simple to put together and I'm seriously getting the hang of those HST (half-square triangles) so they're fun to put together now!
Here's a peek at my Kindness quilt!
It's all washed, dried and wrinkly and I love it!! In the evenings, when it gets too dark to sew (let's face it, I'm getting old!) it keeps me warm while I do a bit of knitting. It's just perfect!
Keep your machine oiled and your needles sharp!

The Kindness Project - Day 2!
I'm behind on this one...mostly because like I said...I had stash, just not QUILT stash! Since the start of my stash has arrived, I've been busy!
Day 1 of sewing the quilt was to make these railroad units. They've been set aside as instructed. But...since the quilt instructions have already all been posted, I know where they fit in. Some of my prints are directional, so I'll have to remember that and be extra careful when assembling the pieces.
Day 2 of sewing was these GORGEOUS star blocks! I just LOVE how they turned out! As this is only my second actual quilt, I was pretty impressed with how everything lined up. Full disclosure: I did become ridiculously well acquainted with my seam ripper!
The next step is to add some borders to the star sections I think, so check back in later on this week and see where I'm at!
