I'm going to let you in on a little secret. I hate pressing seams open. There I said it. I'll press seams to one side all day long but the second you ask me to press them open I turn into a preschooler that doesn't want to pick up their toys. "But Moooommmmm do I have to do it?" The answer is yes it definitely needs to be done but that doesn't mean we can't complain while we do it.
I said that I would have The Kite Quilt (affiliate link) top done today...yeah not so much. All of the seams need to be pressed open. Yesterday I spent more time than I am willing to admit pressing the seams because I'm a genius and didn't do it while I was sewing the strip sets together. All together I had 12 sets of 4 seams that were width of fabric.
Once that was done I cut each strip into four blocks.
The blocks were then cut into triangles.
A lot of triangles.
I only ended up getting eight setting triangles done. Once I get the last two done I need to work on the seven blocks that will be set on point. I'm thinking maybe Friday I will be done with the top if I don't get distracted by my shiny blog. That may have been what happened to me today but I did get some stuff done on here so there is that! Speaking of which...check me out I figured out how to get my picture in the side bar and a short description. I also completed my About Me page so go take a look and learn a little bit about my life.
