Green Eggs & Ham, Anyone?

It took me two days to cut the Green Eggs & Ham quilt.  I just can't stand for very long.  Panels are interesting to cut apart as they're rarely printed on the straight of grain.  Maybe it's just me! 



I will sit and sew today.  This will be an easy one to assemble.  I'll try to get the guts done today.  I can get borders done next weekend.  We'll see how that goes.

Not much, I know, but it seems a lot compared to what I've been able to do the past eight months.

One of these days I'm going to be a real bona fide quilter again!

Oh, stay tuned.  There just might be a guessing game next week ........ and maybe another small drawing a few days after that.  Penny's pretty mum on the whole subject!

I agree about panels. I have some to cut out that are 16.5 square. Waiting to go to a friends to use her mondo ruler.

Those Dr. Seuss quilts turn out so cute. I made two of them a couple of years ago for my granddaughters and them love the. Good luck! It sounds like you are on a roll! Good news.

I agree about the panels. They always seem to be a little bit wonky, making it a challenge to cut out. Glad to hear you back to quilting, even if it is little bit by little bit.

Slow and steady wins the race! You will get stronger each day.
It's hard to make myself stop when I still feel like sewing, but I start feeling the twinge of pain or tiredness. I have learned though if I stop then I can sew the next day, if I don't stop it may be several days before I can get back to it.
I always love seeing what you are working on or which buttons you pushed. :)

Panels drive me crazy so I quit buying them. They are seldom printed straight so I get very frustrated. LOL

Did you get most of it or all of it done?
