From small blocks to large blocks to row.

Began putting the small blocks into larger blocks for quilt. I have a sample of both main blocks. This is a good visualization and well as a double check. It seems you get caught up pining and marking sewing pints that things easily get mixed up and leads to sewing it wrong. I found that pining the rows across to make the large block is the easiest. Able to finish 14 blocks and enough to sew the first row. Once you get into a rhythm it goes a bit faster. However one mistake at the end, makes one realize sewing fatigue has set in. Time to use the message chair for the sore back as well as a break for the day. It sure is a pretty quilt. The points don't always match perfectly, but one will never know it due to the scrappy feel of the quilt.
