My First Sashay


I made this block early in 2011 as part of the Autumn 2010 Patchwork Party. I cut the pieces using the Marti Michell M set of templates, and I stitched the block with my British Janome Jem Platinum machine. I mounted it on my kitchen wall using Scotch tape (my design wall was fully occupied at the time with another project) and took a photo with my very primitive Fuji camera. Later, this block joined twenty-nine siblings in the ninth quilt top I made for the IMC hospital quilters. Somehow, though, it looks as if I never posted a photo of it in my blog. If inanimate objects had feelings, I imagine this block might feel slighted. Maybe its seven-patch and five-patch brothers and sisters have looked down on it for not having a blog post of its very own. Well, I’ve finally remedied the situation. My heartfelt apology for neglecting it so long.
