Another UFO

I put a block of the Jewel Box quilt together today. I have already said that I had painstakingly cut out each part, years ago, so it is really slow, pinning and sewing these bits together. I am only going to do a block now and again, as there are forty eight pieces in each block. I want to get another UFO finished, before I do more of this one.
Thankful thoughts.
I have some really nice friends. Thanks for all your support.

  3. I know what you mean by lots of pieces in a block. The Scrapaholic quilt I am putting borders on now was the same way with each 12" block having 48 pieces. Didn't think I would ever get it pieced but I kept plugging along and quit making blocks at 30.
