Six Degrees, UFO, Up Next

My quandary this week as to what project to take up next has been solved. It seems that the desire to work on a UFO has won out. I found my thoughts returning repeatedly to those blocks waiting to be made for Six Degrees; it seemed too irresistible NOT to go for it. So let the UFO fun begin!

When I inspected the contents of the project tub earlier, just one of these blocks had been completed. The small 4-patch units were complete, and all I needed to do was to construct the full blocks. Easy-peasy! I had 12 pink ones finished in no time. Next up will be 24 blue ones and then 32 burgundy ones.

Another matter. A few posts back, I shared my preparations of the Simple Friendships 2 mini-quilt for hand quilting. Several folks both here and on Instagram had questions about the template I used to mark the quilting design. I provide the following pictures so that those interested can gauge the size and see the label on the template.

I believe I was given this template. I do not know what the information on this label means, but perhaps that 3-1/2" measurement refers to the height of each row fans.

The template itself is 8"x15". On the mini-quilt, it made marking very quick, for sure.

Ok, gotta go! The Frankfort Girls await! It's that time again for visiting and stitching this Friday morning from 9-noon. Yay!

Happy Quilting, Friends!
