Opposites Attract in May

This month, we’ll be making another lotto block from the past in a different size.  This time: an 8inch version of the Spokes block we made in July 2014. Once again, if possible (for me), I will replace this drawing with a photo of a real block, soon. And although this drawing is black and white, I am asking you to make colorful blocks in complementary colors as described in the Fabric guidelines below. You can find the directions for the block here: Spokes-8 inch Quilt Block Pattern   For fans of this block, I’ve included...

Some Cacti

It is busy, busy here, constructing the Dutchman’s Puzzle quilt from the February blocks that I won. Never one to take the easy way out, I am planning tiny little square in a square cornerstones. Wish me luck, no, make that wish me patience! For donation, I have made three cactus pot blocks.  These got easier and easier as I went along and they are so stinking cute!

Three from Canada

Three from me this month. The fourth pic in the collage is a photo of my Cacti and Succulent Soil Mix bag which I recently recovered from the shed after searching for my other gardening supplies. I absolutely adore this month’s block as it reminds me of gardening and cacti, two things dear to my heart...
