Dancing Stars Quilt Along - March Progress

I am linking up to Amy's Creative side blog for my March progress.

I am using the Peggy Martin's quick strip paper piecing method to make these blocks. It does seem to go faster but still the middle two rows for each block do take a long time with those tiny tiny triangles.

I made a total of 13 finished blocks for March here are they laid out:



I am still hoping to make a throw size quilt which need 86 more of these blocks.

Happy Quilting!

    This quilt will be so worth it when done. 86 sounds like a lot, but once finished I bet this will quickly become a favorite quilt

    Gorgeous blocks! They do seem time consuming, but worth it. I love the little pieces!

Here are some of pictures of the Paisley FMQ on my Shades of Blue quilt: Paisley FMQ with Circles - you see on the first block I tried to mix paisley with circles Paisley FMQ Paisley FMQ The past week was really productive for me. Finally my sewing machine started behaving and the quilting went really smooth. I almost quilted away 3 blocks. Just 2 more blocks to quilt approximately. I can't wait to finish this quilt soon. I was in a flow this week with FMQ, but did have stop and work on my piecing my Groovy quilt and work on the UFO. Which is always good.
