Medallion Progress

Here's a peek at the final border for my Columbus Medallion quilt. 

The block is called Corn and Beans. When set block to block, it resembles undulating waves. I will only put it on the top and bottom of the quilt, in order to increase length.

A great way to keep all those triangles organized is to arrange each block on a paper plate. I make notes, like measurements and cutting numbers, right on the plate. Then, I stack them. The pieces stay in place, the stacks take up very little room, and they’re easy to carry to the machine, once I’m ready to sew. 

When I’m finished with one project, I reuse the plates for the next one. Give it a try!
