Milestone

These are the "darks" . . .

These are the "lights" . . .

And here are 60+ 9" dark tumblers and 48+ 9" light tumblers stacked and pinned on the design wall (there are more fabrics involved than you can see here).

Why Milestone? I've tried off and on, unsuccessfully, to work with Kaffe Fassett fabrics. This time, it was a pattern (Lava Lamps) that convinced me it was high time to move forward and make my first full-size KF flimsy (Tippy's charm square topper really doesn't count). I have an awesome plan for a pieced back, too ~ but that's for another day (nothing cut out yet, only stacked).

Milestone will be my back-up project to the finicky curved piecing of the remaining pickle blocks. We'll see if it can stay that way or if it will take over and demand to be assembled sooner (my hunch is the sooner scenario).

Another work week . . . hoping to find some stitching time during the evenings!
