Coffin Quilt Photo Process

 To be clear, this isn't a photo process on how to do English Paper Piecing. This is a photographic documentation for how I have been working my 4-day cycles on this.

Prep


The Body

The Working Piece

Upcoming Days' Work

Day 1

Sew 9 coffins.
The first bundle on the stack - the note indicates which way the upper-left-most coffin is to face.


Tacked around their papers.

Stitched together. The center coffin paper has been removed for reuse.

Day 2

Stitch 9 coffins, stitch them to Day 1
Day 2 has a "Down" note because I'm going across this cycle and the upper-left coffin will fit "between" the green and coffee bean fabrics on the right of Day 1. It will have to go upside down.

Day 2 assembled.


Day 2 and Day 1 stitched together. Center papers have been taken out.

Day 3

Stitch 9 coffins.
Easy day. Stitch 9 coffins.

Day 4

Stitch 9 coffins, stitch them to Day 3, stitch Days 1-2 and 3-4 together, stitch days 1-4 to the Working Piece, stitch the Working Piece to the Body, plan the next 4 days.
Daily 9 coffins next to Day 3


Days 1-2 next to days 3-4

Days 1-4 stitched together with center papers removed, under the Working Piece.




The Working Piece under the Body

Working Piece and Body joined. It doubled in size!

Planning the next 4 days. I'm going down in a column this time, so all of them will be "Up." No fabric chosen could be in the right-most 3 columns. I introduced 3 new prints to this cycle.

Stacked and bundled for the next cycle.
