Let the sewing fun begin :)

Did you cut all your fabric or just a bit to get you started on the first block or two? I saw the first projects pop up on Instagram. So fun! I will link them further down…

The prompt for this week is of course to start sewing and take a pictures of your progress. Whether you work in blocks or sew all the units first… Just finish about a quarter!

This post is part of the Modern Tiles Sew Along! See all posts.

Task

This week’s progress

I love to work in batches when I do FPP – chain piecing style – I decided to finish all FPP units for our second week in this Sew Along.

The goal ist to finish a ¼ of the blocks – or any equivalent in sewing. Do whatever makes the most sense for your sewing style! Work in blocks, in units…

Finishing all FPP units probably brought me a bit over that goal line, but as I am not the biggest fan of applique, I now have enough leeway for next week’s task – finishing the applique units. An appearingly smaller goal but as big for me as the other ;)

A beautiful fabric pull inspired by Barcelona tiles – if I remember correctly from the stories ;)

And this masculine, modern but also very traditional version in grey and red. Love the picture idea too!

And a very bold design in contrast.

Isn’t it awesome to see all the different ideas? I am amazed with all your creative pulls and concepts!

Sponsor

Make Modern

Also I want to give a shout out to our sponsors. They are the ones that make the prizes for you at the end of the Sew Along possible. This week’s short profile:

Make Modern is a digital magazine founded 2014 by three Australian quilters. The magazine is produced in Australia by a small team of passionate modern quilters with creative collaborators from all over the world. You can buy the magazine in a subscription but also as single issues or bundles.

Interested in a bit more: Head over to their About page, visit their Shop or their Instagram profile. You might already know the #makemodern hashtag :)

I will be looking out for your makes in the #ModernTilesSewAlong. And if you haven’t joined us yet, there is still time to jump in. We are just getting really started and there are two catch-up weeks planned in to leave no quilter behind.
