Completing the Piecing

Now that I have my own machine, I am able to work on the quilt much more from home. I've been able to finish piecing the quilt together. Although I was afraid this process would be difficult, it was simply a matter of laying out my "coupled patches" and sewing two pair of "coupled patches" together. Once that process made one row, I would repeat these steps to create a second row, and then sew one row to the another. I suppose in my mind, I thought I would be sewing one block to another to another until the entire quilt top was completed. This method is MUCH simpler and easier to manage.

It's funny how our minds can make such a simple process complicated just because we choose to see it as complicated. I will be the first to admit that I would have never in a thousand years imagined myself quilting. But look at me now :)
