Here’s my nine California Poppy blocks for August....

Here are four California poppy blocks for August.   Fun and easy to put together.  Thanks to Julie for this month’s pattern.  This month I am donating my blocks.   I was fortunate to win last month and will be working to get that top together as soon as final  blocks arrive! Sincerely, Su Quilting in...

I had a harder time with fabrics for this block than I thought I might – apparently I don’t have many bluey greens. This one is far greener than it looks in the photo, though.  I’m hoping that some of my reds & oranges are ok, even though they have quite a bit of other colour in them – if not, please let me know and I’ll withdraw them.  Actually, I’m donating them to the pot anyway, so I don’t...

Hi, Everyone!   I made myself get my Red Forest blocks mailed off to Su in Michigan before starting one of these bright California Poppies blocks.  I was glad to see that she received them.  However, I was afraid I wouldn’t get anything made this month, as I had an unusually busy August.  However, I got a few quiet hours today to do as I wished, and here it is!  I don’t know if I’ll get any more made, but I guess I have a few...

Busy month here and I almost didn’t find time to  make the Poppy Field blocks. What a great idea for a quilt. Today was a sewing day and I enjoyed digging through my scrap baskets. Oranges and yellows abounded, but there were almost no blue toned greens. It is true, I have finished two green themed quilts in the last 12 months, but there is still a huge pile of greens in the cupboard. Strangely, all are in the yellow-green family,...

Here are two from me this month… Fun to make and they are pretty. The blocks are green where they should be just a bad...

My Red Forest blocks are in the envelopes (and that’s what seems to take the most time!), will take them to the post office in the morning.  Will take to 4 weeks to reach Su and Sharon.  Karen N in Cape Town (at the bottom of Africa!)

This is my first BlockLotto entry, 8 blocks. I have so many UFOs, I cannot imagine why I am taking on yet another project, but, like many of you, I just cannot help myself! I retired 11 months ago from newspaper editing, and thought I’d get caught up, but instead, have found sooooo much time for fabric shopping and must-do-this-one-too...

Here are the only two I have time to make this month.  It was fun to play with my scrap pile. Kathie...

Here are my four California poppy block for August. Great idea Julie, the colours look great. Good luck everyone....

Now I am a little worried as to my choice of fabrics. I hope they pass the test. It wouldn’t be my first rejection...

I have been anxiously checking my post-box daily for the past three months, and I am sorry to report that our postal system seems to have slowed down to almost a standstill.   The last envelope in was on 19 June….. Yesterday I was happily surprised to get a sixth envelope with blocks, thank-you Kathy S! I have now received blocks from: Cathy K, Christa, Kathy S, Linda E, Peggy M and Robin. To Angie, Barbara P, Cathy L, Kathleen, Linda N,...
