Seven Blocks for the Drawing

The blocks were fun to make and I had lots of 2-1/2″ squares in my cookie tins. I think this pattern will play well in our guild charity programs. If I didn’t have a graduation quilt demanding my attention, I would have made more. From Elizabeth in Michigan — where spring has finally decided to arrive!

Blocks Off to California

I included a big giant snowball too. Machine quilted, hand quilted, tied. Label says: “A Snowball’s Chance Despite the odds I believe some snowballs could survive a trip through hell. I believe in miracles too.” More on today’s blog post at Sane, Crazy, Crumby...

Rail Blocks Made

Here are my 9 Rail Variation blocks for May. These were quick and fun. I even found some blue and green fabric from the seventies that was perfect for a few of the squares .

Today, Tuesday May 8, I mailed my blocks to both Karen in South Africa and Kristin in California. Kristin should receive hers on Friday, and Karen’s will take 2 weeks (6-10 business days) to get to South Africa, and then it’s up to their postal service from there.

I sent my two noon and night blocks off to Karen in South Africa today but didn’t ask how long it would take. Hope they arrive safe and soon.
