Fusion Blanket

Five more blocks completed.

I've found that it works best to have a session of blanket stitching the edges, then I have a session of crochet.  Still another fifty to go.

I thought I'd do myself a test square, just so I knew what I was letting myself in for.  After rereading the instructions, I had to take all my squares back to the sewing machine, they all needed to be top stitched!

Never mind now, it's all done, and I've done my test square.  It looks so much better in real life, I can't wait to have more blocks.  I think I'm going to blanket stitch and crochet as I go, it will be so much more fun seeing the pile of completed squares grow.

Small progress has been made.

All the squares have now been turned out, pressed, and the turning hole stitched.  There are fifty six squares, so it should be a fair size when finished.  The next stage is to blanket stitch around the edge.  With 56 to do, I think it may take a little while.

Not that I needed another project, but I thought this one would be great to use up the red/white charm squares I had.

I've got my fabric squares stitched together, but the next stage is to turn them out and close the turning hole.  The way things are going here at the moment, not sure when that will be.
