Bordering the quilt blocks (Feb 08, 2023)
I have gotten bogged down in bordering blocks for my postage stamp scrap quilt. I was pulling my hair out doing the set-in seaming. I finally found a tutorial, https://fb.watch/jpsI2VQnt6/ so I am hoping I can get back on track. This happens, life happens, you have to be patient with yourself and pick it up again when you are able. ♥
04/28/23 UPDATE: Found more tutorials. This is what I SHOULD have done, to save time and effort: continue out each block with the black squares while I was sewing them, and then trim the blocks square. No set in seams! https://www.quiltylove.com/scrappy-granny-squares-quilt/
I am always learning too! In the mean time, I have been using my sewing hour to alter my clothes so that they fit again. I have lost 75 pounds in the past few years, and nothing fit any longer. I couldn’t keep putting that off. More on that coming up.

That’s legitimate! Did you get all your clothes altered?
