Smoked Cheddar Units

Besides working on my Grandmother's Flower Garden, I have been preparing the units needed for my next pieced quilt called Smoked Cheddar.

My friend Terry, in a purging frenzy, gave away several kits she knew she'd never get around to making, or kits that she'd lost interest in. Her one stipulation was that if we took a kit, we HAD to make it! I took this and determined instantly that it would be a Florida project. 

Over the last week or so, I've made HSTs in two colorways. I have pressed open only a few of these; they are piled up in front of my little iron in this phot. The mass to the right is one half of all the flying geese units I will need - 64 total. I finished a couple that are stacked in the center. Toward the front are some tiny HSTs. These are extras for some future project; I cannot see throwing away perfectly good corners when making flying geese, so I stitch them and save them. From 64 flying geese, I will have 128 HSTs; that ought to make something! *grin*

Here's a better look at all the units which are currently under construction. Having all these made should make block construction go really fast. I will trim everything and aim to be as accurate as possible. Bing-bada-bing. I should have blocks that look spectacular.

I'm gonna have to put everything away for about a week as we are having guests. I'll let you know how it's going when I get back to it.

Happy Quilting, Friends!
