One Spoke

One Spoke

Totally LOVE this block. It reminds me of fireworks! Saturday I fly back to reality of home and work so I bet this is it for the month for me. Fingers crossed that one block is all I need! I wish everyone a happy and safe July 4th! Helen Nashville,...

One block finally done!!

One block finally done!!

It’s been a crazy month. I had the pieces to hand sew cut weeks ago but couldn’t figure out how to arrange them…..so I did the paper piecing method. I am posting this from my iPad so hopefully the image posted ok. Helen Nashville, TN

Block mailed to Julianne

It is on it’s way! I usually try to get it in the mail the first week but my new job is keeping me really busy and I just didn’t make it until today. A friend of mine north of Sacramento mailed my son a package last week and it arrived in two days…so I hope it goes equally as fast the opposite direction! NOW to get this month’s block sewn before the sneak peak comes out. I have to admit that I am very intimidated by the...

One Diagonal Bar

Love the photos and how the different shades of blue look together….and I had the perfect scraps left over from my nephew’s quilt! Definitely one of those months I wish I had more time to make more (sigh). Another fantastic block Sophie! Thank you, Helen Nashville,...

Block Mailed to Mariella

Christa and I mailed our blocks together early last week. I hope that they arrive a lot faster than the block I sent beginning of last month that hasn’t arrived yet! Congrats! Helen Wahl

One Triangle Square

One Triangle Square

I have a personal policy to make sure I get the previous month block sent out before I let myself post the next months block. So I am really glad I made it to the post office before my toddler fell asleep in the car. LOVE this block and can’t wait to see what the winners make with them! I only made one because my son only took 1 nap and it wasn’t long enough for 2….maybe more will come. Thank you Sophie for another good one!...

Star Chain for Mariella

On it’s way to Mexico. There was a debate between the post office counter workers as to if it needed a customs form and they decided no…..but he charged me twice as much as I usually pay for postage….hopefully it will get there ok. He told me 10 to 14 days. Well see….Mexico isn’t as far as Israel and that one arrived pretty quick (last month). Congrats! Helen Nashville, TN

One Star Chain

One Star Chain

One star chain for donation. I really love my block but since I recently was the reciever of blocks I think I will skip this month. I think the hardest part for me was fabric selection. I initially liked the contrast but after it was sewn together the chain didn’t contrast as much with the green. It was a good lesson on color! Thank you Sophie! Helen W Nashville,...

One Bead

One Bead

Finally got one done….hopefully in time for the sneak peak!! This was my first attempt at appliqué (that you can really count anyway). I can’t believe how hard it was to make a perfect circle (but it may be just because it was my first attempt). I attempted the foil technique first because it looked easier. After a failed attempt I ended up lightly starching the sides and ironing over my template. It was really hard not having...

More Chevrons Received

All but two have arrived! It has been so much fun finding packages in the mail. I expect that Cathy’s is still traveling over the ocean (I think I saw her post last weekend or Monday) and I expect Erin is snowed in. Thank you all! I am looking forward to getting started soon! Helen Nashville, TN
