May Schnibble Done!!

I love that we had the choice this month to make the Schnibble small sized using 2 charm packs or big sized using 2 layer cakes!!

And I loved Carrie’s name so much, that I named mine the same - “X-Rated”!!

And what’s even more appropo is that I used two layer cakes of Moda “Bliss” that I won a while back from Carrie herself in a Schnibble drawing!!

This quilt was super easy to cut and sew together, but I did have a problem…

because it is laid out in rows on a design wall, then sewn one row at a time, I had no design wall or empty floor space big enough to lay it out on…

so, I had to divide the pile of pieces into four stacks, and lay out only one quarter of the quilt at a time, then sew that quarter together, then lay out another quarter, sew it together, then join it to the first quarter.  It was a pain to do, but so worth it!  I do sooooo love this quilt!!

I realllllly need a bigger design wall, or even a big empty floor space!!

But I was able to lay it out on my kitchen island to pin baste the sandwich…  so much easier on my back and knees than on the floor!!
