Update on Medallion Sampler

It is DST in Europe!! We had to put ours clocks an hour forward.

As you can see in the picture above I have four clocks. Letting me know what time it is in New York, London, Amsterdam & Sydney. As you can also see, I was a little late in getting started. It was nearly lunch time before I finally got started with cutting the fabrics for my Medallion Sampler.

Some will be really surprised to read this, but I've cut all the rectangles and squares for the Jacob's Ladder block!

Putting some two sided sticky tape on the template (see picture underneath). Don't want any sliding of the template while cutting. Don't you just love this small rotary cutter. It is the 18 mm Soft cushion rotary from Clover

 

Cutting with the small rotary. This is precise work.

 Look at all the holes in the fabric.

 

Nice triangles.

 Nearly there. All completed!!

Who knows maybe I might even do some sewing this week and complete a couple of blocks.

Encountered a small problem while preparing. I think I will definitely run out of the crème colored fabric. Luckily, I'm going to Amsterdam coming Saturday.  Hopefully I can buy some more at the quilt store Ruth and I are planning to visit.
