Month 10 of the Civil War Chronicles BOM is complete. These blocks are a variation of a block called Contrary Wife and went together fairly easily. I cut out Month 11's blocks last night. The blocks are similar in construction, but the color placement is such that they look entirely different. They are called King’s Crown. Cutting them out was tedious. I will be making 64 hsts that finish at 1 1/8 inches. Other units called for 5/8 inch increments. There are a lot of hours left in constructing this quilt top, but the end is in sight. After Month 11’s blocks are done, I get to see how accurate my piecing has been as I can begin constructing units to add to the quilt’s center.
I’ve also laid out some Jacob’s Ladder blocks on my design wall, from all the leader/ender units I’ve made.
Be sure and check out what others are up to at Patchwork Times.

Wow, two really nice projects! Your jacob's ladder blocks are really pretty. Those must be a nice change to sew after the teeny pieces for the civil war blocks.!
Wow - such tiny little pieces! Both blocks look great. I have put my JL blocks away for a little while.
Those are both just beautiful! Hope you're getting a lot done this week!
