Getting caught up

I just returned home from 4 months working in Yellowstone National Park. While I was there, I received 4 different blocks - and figured I'd better get them posted!

Eccentric Star - May block from Teresa

June block from Janet

April block from Debra

July block from Linda

I also received this block but failed to write down who it was from. Is this my August block from Agnes or is it from another swap?  Sorry!

Partial Peek at Heather's Log Cabin

Here's a partial peek at the log cabin block Heather asked for in shades of blues and white on whites around a yellow center.

The full block is posted on my blog. I really enjoy making log cabin blocks, watching it grow as each strip is added.

Although I missed the mailing deadling...not by much...posted it yesterday, June 30th!

Hope she likes it!

Block for Linda

I tried to get this in the mail today but I made it to the post office SIX minutes too late today :( I figured I had until 3, but apparently only until 230... I'm sorry Linda! I will be going to the post office on my way to school on Monday. (Still sounds weird to be saying that again!)


Here is a sneak peek of the block for you:



I didn't realize until after the block was completely assembled that the whites aren't exactly all the same :/ I hope that isn't going to be a huge problem (I don't mind making another one if it is!). They are all WHITE, just some is slightly thinner. I think when you use the block and quilt it you won't be able to tell. Believe it or not, I had no more white yardage, so I had to pull from scraps to get the white for this block!


P.S. everytime I add a photo to a post it completely screws with the formatting of the message. Does anybody know why it does that or how I can get it to STOP doing that?

Sneak peek for Bryan

Bryan was my partner for June swap. He requested mini bow tie. I hope you like it. I hope I got the fabric right. I went to Barcelona to buy the fabric.

June block from Linda in Georgia

I got my bee-utiful block from Linda this week!  It looks lovely with all the other blocks that I have received so far : )

From UK to US, we CANdy!

This is a shy sneak peak of my Block to Blondie

this was a perfect SWAP! Blondie requested 'happy colors' and Scrappy!
I got carried away and I made not one - but two blocks for you Blondie.
I hope Blondie will like this SWAP as much as I did.
'till next time

Peek for Linda in Georgia

Here's a sneak peek of the block I made for Linda for the June swap.  Yes, I am early for a change : )
Linda ask for  a pastel floral with roses, and she gave several color choices and I picked the green and pink. Her block selections were numerous and I will wait to tell you when I show the entire block.  Hope she likes it!
