Nine blocks for the lotto, and one for donation.  These were fun, and a nice way to use up a (tiny) fraction of my box of 2.5″...

Here’s my blocks for the month – nine entries and one donation, since it was easiest to make them up in pairs.  This was a really fun pattern and a good excuse to work through a bit of my scrap bin.  Thanks,...

I’m cutting it close, but this has been a rollercoaster month.  These were really fun to put together, and I enjoyed digging through my 2.5″ strips bin to find interesting color...

Here’s my nine blocks for February.  I ended up cutting them from 2.5″ strips and had so much fun putting them together.  Thanks for the lovely Pantone green, Sophie!  I had just the right amount of just the right piece for it in my...

Nine string blocks from me for this month’s lotto!  These sewed up really fast and fun, and used up a lot of the strips left over from this month’s main (Christmas) sewing projects.  The pieced string makes it a neat variation on rail fences.  I can definitely see myself sewing these again.  Thanks for the block,...

In late November, my mother, aunt, and I threw a baby shower for my little sister, who is due in January.  I knew I wanted to make her a baby quilt, and had even earmarked the Split 9-Patch blocks for it.  With my visiting mother-in-law minding her grandsons, I was able to make this quilt in three days, the week of the shower.  My sister got all weepy when she opened the package.  I don’t know why – I’d warned her I would be...

I finally got enough of a breather to sew up this month’s blocks.  Nine barn door blocks for the...

Sorry for the belated thanks, but this month has been taken up with a new baby and recovering from the surgery of having him! Thank you to Deborah, Ginny, Karen, Linda, Margaret, Nancy, Nann, Peggy, and Sophie.  I’ve received all your blocks.  (And have earmarked them to play with for a quilt for my niece, due in...

I didn’t even notice that one of my other blocks had a bit of aqua in it.  Hopefully this one will be an acceptable...

Things I learned this month: I have a lot fewer grays and purples in my stash than I’d thought!  Still, I managed to eke out nine blocks for the lotto, and four for my...

I just received the last of the Bullseye blocks in the mail yesterday.  Thanks, Deborah, Robin, Karen A., and Julianne!  I have events taking up my life for the next week and a half, but as soon as they’re over, this is one gorgeous set of blocks I am so looking forward to sewing...

Five more sets of blocks have arrived in my mailbox, from Elizabeth C., Sharon K., Laura R., Ginny D., and Kathy S.  The more I look at these blocks, the more I fall in love with all the colors and shades you’ve selected.  These are going to make up into a wonderful baby quilt for a certain...
