This is what I have on the design wall right now. After I snapped the shot, I worked on more apple cores and put an outside row of brown and white blocks on the other. The apple core blocks were cut using my Accuquilt GO. I love that little machine. The fun part of the Valentine quilt is that it started out as a disappearing 9 patch. That block never fails to intrigue me.
This is my crazy drunkards path. I used my Accuquilt GO cutter to cut out the blocks. I LOVE that crazy little machine. OOPS, I think I might have said that once before. It makes cutting so much easier for blocks with curves. I LOVE that I get notches to make matching a breeze. I cut the aqua border strip using the 2 1/2" die. It's so much fun to run a yard of fabric through the machine and get strips that are straight and fast. Last night I cut another drunkard's path out. It's from a magazine, so my blocks will be larger than the pattern. A few adjustments with the borders and setting strips will be needed.
I have to share the quilt ladder I got. When I went to the Olathe Quilt Show, the L
il' Red Hen Quilt Shop had a booth set up. I couldn't resist because the prices were so good. The ladder is custom made. I think there is about a 3 week turn around. Mine is 7 feet tall. Isn't it the coolest thing?
Have a great Wednesday.

The ladder is WAY cool. So you like the GO cutter, lol? I can't imagine sewing all those curves. Please share your trick for that.
