Ombre Gems Quilt Along – Week Seven

Welcome to week seven of the Ombre Gems quilt along! Ombre Gems quilt along week seven

It’s a catch up week for the Ombre Gems quilt along!  There are a ton of blocks in this quilt so I thought a catch up week might be a good idea for those of you falling a little behind.

If you are on schedule and have all of your blocks done up to this point… first of all.. nicely done!!  You can take this week week to trim all of your blocks if you haven’t already.  Or feel free to keep cruising along so you have a completed quilt top at the end of the quilt along 🙂
