Chrome instead would let me comment... THE THINGS I DO FOR YOU! :-)<br /><br />Real comments: the skinny border is a very cool idea -- what size are those border strips (cut width)? If you used a bold contrasting color, it would give the effect of piped binding with much less work. And yes, the inside snowball corners make a huge difference to lighten up that block. Although I'm not familiar with the diagonal line tape you were using -- how does that simplify the snowball corners?Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04214091162157757315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6772130163577468176.post-5308742162720952042020-01-25T10:16:35.872-05:002020-01-25T10:16:35.872-05:00These look great, Preeti!These look great, Preeti!Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04214091162157757315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6772130163577468176.post-44994730687489354002020-01-21T20:10:50.570-05:002020-01-21T20:10:50.570-05:00Two great finishes and some neat blocks in the mid...Two great finishes and some neat blocks in the middle!

I enjoyed the story of how you arrived at the snowballed center, too. I often start a quilty conversation with my husband and emerge with a useful thought or two I need to go deal with right away, usually leaving him bemused and "happy to have helped".canuckquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02804830507722535614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6772130163577468176.post-62356960112366300262020-01-19T08:01:57.235-05:002020-01-19T08:01:57.235-05:00You've been really busy in the sewing room.

Linoleum is brilliant, not because of the beautiful fabric but because you took a very common/trendy block, changed the colour placement, and made a fresh, fabulous new design. Bravo! The little flannel quilt is sweet too- great use of scraps. Those RSC blocks is striking, especially with those light centres. You'll have another beautiful quilt by year end. laughing gas quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04620402314072197845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6772130163577468176.post-4541472317986574052020-01-18T14:37:19.781-05:002020-01-18T14:37:19.781-05:00You are a prolific quilt maker and a marvelous sto...You are a prolific quilt maker and a marvelous story teller.

It's a shame too, because it was really witty and fun and long. Now all you get is I adore the name of this quilt. It is my mom's linoleum in her kitchen to a T. I'm pretty sure it had asbestos in it as it was original from the 50s when the house was built. Before I was born, I might add. I'm old but not quite as old as that brand-new-at-the-time house.

Your RSC blocks are lovely too - I've yet to decide on a 'new' block to make for this but hope inspiration will hit soon as January is sneaking by! Oh and I love that you have scraps that sew themselves too!!! Great idea with those offcuts - don't know why I never through of using bricks rather than squares for my scrappy flannel bits - very effective, and it would suit my scraps so much better. I'll whisper to the box and hope they sew themselves up like yours did!Raewynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123089629481933099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6772130163577468176.post-60276294104915229102020-01-15T10:59:55.362-05:002020-01-15T10:59:55.362-05:00You are so productive!!
