Got Long Arming?

Another six hours (or more) on DW yesterday.

Negative Space

The quilt top has this negative space over the barn. After auditioning several motifs, the decision was made to echo around the flowers for consistency within the quilt itself. This is the result.

Prior to long arming though these two blocks were completed. These are from the Leah Day Friendship Quilt-Along.

Notice the ugly grass outside the window? We still don't have spring-like weather today.

Mom is coming by later today, so long arming will commence this morning until she arrives. I'm hoping the cone of thread I'm using holds out. It's starting to look very thin up there and it's a concern as to whether or not it'll make it through this entire top.
