Quilt, second steps

I have added a contrast strip to the top & bottom of each square


It isn't easy to see both colours on the table so I have taken some pics on the table & some on a cloth


I sewed the squares onto the contrasting strip like this, chain piecing & then cut between the squares.

I know it isn't very straight, but I haven't pressed the seams yet, it will look better when I have.

I've given up waiting for my promised table & I'm sewing on the kitchen table, I'm not dressmaking, there isn't enough room, so I'll stick to making at quilt for now.
