I'm still behind the official schedule, but I'm making progress on my Waterfall quilt. Week 4 included cutting up the strips and making the first 3 blocks (for the baby size quilt).
My lights feel not so light to me, but I'm happy with how these blocks came out and I have stacks lined up for some of my darkest blocks next so you'll see the value contrast as I continue sewing. I think I also didn't follow directions for the strip piecing and may pick out a few seams to shuffle things around so I will have some lighter strips and some darker strips.
All the details of the Quilt Along are on Amy's Creative Side. You can see my earlier progress in my Weeks 1 & 2 and Week 3 posts.

I think your progress looks good so far. It's hard for me to do scrappy, so I like how controlled this feels.

Post authorThank you, Yvonne. It felt so good to pull this scrappy palette out of my stash and start using it. ;-) The formula of the pattern is great of planned scrappiness. And I'm at the stage where the blocks go together so quickly I've stitched 8 blocks in the last 24 hours. (Just need to press seams so I can share them tomorrow!)

Your blocks are nice and colourful. You may be behind, but you're making progress.

Post authorIndeed! And that's the important part. That's pretty much the summary of my quilting in general. It takes a while, but I'm making progress. That may be the curse of having so many projects going at once. ;-) Thanks for visiting, Anja.
