Duo Postage Stamp Quilt Along

Rachel of p.s. i quilt fame hosted a Postage Stamp quilt along at the start of January and I wanted to make one but didn't really have the time to do so.  Rachel expressed interest in making one too so we decided to have our own mini quilt along.   And from the looks of Rachel's new banner on her blog, her strips are made and I love how she color-coordinated each set.  Now why didn't I think of that?!

For my Postage Stamp quilt, I am using Giddy by Sandy Gervais with Snow Moda Bella solid.  I REALLY wanted to use Sunkissed as a lot of people in Rachel's quilt along did as well as I really wanted to use Sugar and Spice but Giddy was handy at home and I that's what I used. 

Here are my strips, all made and ready for the next step.  I hope to have them cut by Friday this week.  Wait.  I WILL have them cut by Friday this week.  What else do I have going on that's so pressing?!  LOL!


If I stay on target, I'll be making Postage Stamp blocks during the Friday Night Sew In.

Enjoy your day!

  1. You're too funny -- what else? Well, how 'bout a little cutie and hubby to take care of for starters LOL!

    What a fun project for you and Rachel -- I'm looking forward to watching the progress. Love your fabric choices!

  2. Yay! I'm sewing segments together tonight...for a while anyway, then I plan on an early bedtime :)

    I wish I hadn't colour-coordinated my strips. I should have gone random, so I'm trying to do that now with the segments.

    I think my FNSI might be spent on this, too...unless I work up the courage to start quilting O'Cherries.
