I am counting the HST row as row 1, so this is row 2.
This block is very near completion. I just need to do a little more in the top left triangle (the gold one). Don't worry...I won't be giving you my progress in block by block blog posts! All the Monkey Wrench blocks in this row (there are 5 of them) are made of the same red, blue, and cream. The triangles around each block are scrappy.
One of the things I like so much about hand quilting my extremely scrappy quilts is that you get up close and personal with each fabric. So many of my quilts have the last of a favorite fabric in them.
Since I pieced this with 2 other ladies, I get to see a sample of their Thimbleberries collections. Some must have been designed right after Lynette Jensen got off the ark. I'm talkin' old.
Soon I'll post about my quilty bathroom. Curious??

What beautiful even stitches you have! I'm envious. I'm also loving the Thimbleberries fabrics in your quilt. Pretty! :o)
What beautiful hand quilting. I love to hand quilt but have trouble keeping my stitches small and consistent. I can't wait to see more of this one.
