Blocks being mailed today, houses are a top

Posted by on September 16, 2013 in sent and received, show and tell | 6 comments

I am mailing star blocks to Linda, Sharon, and Mary Jane when I head to town this afternoon for errands and my guild meeting.

My husband came through his surgery just fine and went back to work last week. We had a round of stomach virus in the house and on Sept. 6 my brother got married…I quilted the quilt my Mom made for them.

On Labor Day I decided to get some of the I-Spy house blocks I won into a quilt top. I will be getting it quilted in the next 12 days, as it is a gift for my grandson who is due in October and the baby shower is Sept. 28. Here is the top…I need to find a nice backing fabric. My quilt consultant (DH) helped me decide block layout and sashing borders from some strips I had on hand.I-spy the neighborhood

    I love your quilt. I liked this block but I couldn’t picture how they would go together! Your grandson will love it.

    This is so cute. I love it. Besides the I-spy in the windows, there is also I-spy a color with the houses.
