February blocks for Linda

Linda requested log cabin block in cream & blue, or cream & green. I hope these log cabin blocks meet the "brief" and fit in with your planned project. I had fun stitching them, Kerry (Australia)

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!

Thank you, Linda! & a sneak peek for you

Here is the block I received from Linda this past week along with the other blocks I have collected or made for a sampler quilt I plan to make.

Her block has the golden background.  It is called A Dandy and I think it’s a perfect addition!  Thank you!!!

Here is a sneak peek 0f the block I will mail you on Monday:

Hope it is bright enough:)

From Linda to Shannon

Edited to add:

I messed up and posted this on the wrong blog. It was bound to happen evenutally. LOL! So this is what I am doing over on Let's Bee Together. Come on over and take a look.

I received my first block. Thank you Linda!

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?

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 : )

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!

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.
