The last block in my Autumn House quilt is complete! It is called, "A Squirreling Vine."
This house's architect must have had a strange sense of humor. How else could one explain that one crooked window? (And how is it that I never notice these things until they are all done?) :)
To make it match the block 7, I went ahead and added a strip to the inside edge. Actually, the strip was initially on the outside (on both blocks), but after looking at the blocks all lined up, I decided it would look better if the strip was on the inside edge, toward the center of the quilt. So there was some unsewing in both blocks to make that happen. But I think it will look much better in the end.
Next step: putting all the blocks together. This may have to wait until after the holidays. At the same time though, I'm pretty anxious to get this top done. We'll see how it goes.
