I'm less than five feet tall and have to be very careful not to fall, so designing the top of this quilt on the design wall means I'd have to use a stepladder, and that isn't a very good thing for me.
I decided to sew the top part of what I have together, then I can lower it to a comfortable height on the design wall and then I can add the 2 rows above what is shown in the photo. Since my design wall is a bit too narrow for 30 2-1/2" blocks so I decided to sew the leftmost blocks together. This will allow me to shift everything over and add the extra blocks to the right.
This is singing to me! I love it. Be careful on that ladder!
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit taller than you and only need a step stool, but I think I'd feel safer using a little ladder! BE CAREFUL! The pastels looks really good and you are surprising us with how many you have!
ReplyDeleteWe have to start working in different ways to accommodate aging but it’s better than the alternative!
ReplyDeleteYour pastels are coming together so well!! I am not that tall either and have given up the step ladder stuff...too chancey for me...

Lynne - I wonder if a foldable work platform would be an option for you instead of a stepladder. Don't fall!
ReplyDeleteI like your method of sewing portions and then moving the project down within easier reach. (I've done the same type of thing, as well as laying projects out in the horizontal position to keep things within reach). Beautiful colors!
