Sweet Dreams quilt done at last

Sweet Dreams quilt done at last

Can anybody remember the Sweet Dreams blocks from September of 2014?   Well, I was the winner of those blocks and I have finally completed my quilt. I used all the blocks, even the pink ones, and it looks great (this picture makes it look patchier than it looks in person, and colors are brighter).  My husband loves...

Catching up

We are back in communication at last – our one week work trip turned into almost 3.  I came home to a box full of squishies from Lisa, Laurina, Marie, Margaret, and today’s post brought Mariella’s 9 (plus a lovely piece of fabric – thank you so much, Mariella!)  and if my list from the summary is correct, all my Sweet Dreams blocks are here!  Now to find time to play with them.  They are all beautiful, I really...

Thank you to Julie, Laurie, Karen, and Cathy, your beautiful blocks have arrived safely.  We will be out of touch for the next two weeks – no phone, no internet- hopefully my daughter will have a nice little stack of blocks waiting when we return.

Sweet Dreams update

Took a little trip over the weekend, so came home to a nice full box of squishies.  Received blocks from Angie, Sophie, Andrew, Laura, Pat K, Maria, and Gwen.  Thanks, everybody – they are all great.  It is fun to look at the different techniques people used to sew the circles in the middle, as well as the different fabric combinations.  Current count 52.

3 more for Kathleen

3 more for Kathleen

This makes a total of 6 for me. I went out and bought a couple of fat quarter bundles, didn’t look too close, just needed some more white backgrounds.  Cute polka dots, a floral, and out the door.  When I washed them, I discovered  1) that the floral has cats in it (very cute!),  2) that the two bundles coordinated perfectly and were  3)  just right for a pattern I have on my to-do list.  So, before I could make Block Lotto blocks with...

3 Sweet Dreams for Kathleen

3 Sweet Dreams for Kathleen

Love these blocks, had to take time to make a few.  So here are 3 for me, may get to more later in the month.  Would love to win them! I always seem to learn something about myself making block lotto blocks – this month I learned that I have very few white background fabrics in my scrap box.  Plenty of red, though – my Hubby’s favorite...

One for June from Kathleen

One for June from Kathleen

I got a shock when I read that Sophie had sent out the sneak peak – what happened to June?  Took time to make a sunrise block before I missed out entirely.  I haven’t been avoiding it because of difficulty – just busy, and it is not a block that you can knock out a set in the morning, for sure.  I might find time for a second, but will post this one now so I’m sure it’s...
