More on the “Tube Quilt”…
11:59 PM
The tube quilt is progressing…I’ve got all of the blocks cut now.
I started with a lot of tubes!
I like to press the blocks on a towel to prevent the seams from “indenting” the block.
I also only press from the backside of the blocks. This seems to keep the seams from stretching out.
I have a total of twelve different blocks. I plan on putting them together in a random, “scrappy” fashion.
Not sewn together yet, just up on the design wall.
I’m liking it but what about borders? And, I’ve got a lot of extra “tubes” leftover. I think I’ll use those…not sure how yet.
I really like this quilt! A great use of my Moda Max and Whisker Jelly Roll!

I like your quilt. Next time - try starting st the "other" end of the tube when you cut your squares - then work your way to the left - might be easier for a lefty. ;))
