February Block for Sunny

I just received word that Sunny has received her block. Yah, now I can post a picture.

Sunny asked for Flower Basket Block in Old Fashion florals and soft muted tones.

Sunny says she loves it, I am so pleased as it was my first ever flower basket.

Blocks from Margaret

I got my swap block today for February(I think Margaret already mentioned that we agreed to be a few days late : ) and I received two beautiful blocks.  The pattern is Bachelor's Puzzle(my request in bright, Kaffe Fassett style fabrics).  She did a fabulous job...thank you, Margaret.  The extra goodies are also appreciated!

February block received

I received this gorgeous block from Michelle today. I LOVE it Michelle!!
I love star blocks and the LeMoyne star is my all time favorite.

Sneak peek for Jackie

I finally finished Jackie's block.  She asked for a red white and black star block.  Here is a sneak peak. 

 I used three different batiks I found at the Quilt Extravaganza in Statesville earlier this month.  I say finally finished because I had a little mishap with a rotary cutter Tuesday night.  I had everything cut and mostly pieced and was trimming up some sections when I sliced right through the point of the last HST.  It was late and I decided not to fix it until the next day.  Of course then I got sick.  Well its done and ready to be dropped in the mail.  I hope you like it Jackie!

February block completed

It was Friday Night Sew In yesterday.  It is so good to have a designated day to stop everything else and sew.  

Here is my block for Theresa, my February partner.

Theresa, your block will be in the mail on Monday, with my apologies for taking so long.

Sneak Peek for Linda M

Here's a few snippets of the block I made for Linda M.  She requested "shabby chic" colors, among them muted pinks & greens.  And she mentioned roses. 

I included one of her favorite block elements....to be revealed after she receives the block.  Will be sending it out tomorrow!

Hope you like it, Linda.

Sunny's BaSkEt

My February partner Sunny emailed to let me know that my block arrived on her doorstep. Sunny is saving "baskets" and I added a little twist to it.
Sunny said she liked it.

Appliqued "Flowers" in the basket.

Thanks for being my partner... Sunny.

Michelle's February Block

Michelle requested Civil War fabrics for her block. I didn't have any so I had to order a charm pack. I love how these swaps force you to work in ways that you normally don't.

 Michelle said she likes scrappy, I hope she meant it because this block is scrappy! Michelle, your block went out in the mail yesterday.

Sneak Peek for Munaiba

Here is the sneak peek for Munaiba.  She wanted bright colors in the Dutchman's Puzzle block.  It will be on it's way to her in Friday's mail.  I hope you like it!
