Diary Block Tuesday


Last week I spent a few days in the Poconos for a sewing getaway with my Quiltini friends. This was the latest time of the year we have been up there and it was beautiful. The leaves were pretty and the air cool and crisp. I did not take any pictures because I think it would be hard to compare my pictures to Mother Nature's!
This block represents the 4 friends on mine that were there.......don't we all think of our friends as "stars" in our skies? Each star is small, only 3 x 3. They were not hard to make especially because they are wonky, definitely a plus!


This is a framed quilt block that I got at the library challenge held at my local library. It was amazing to see how everyone took those little weddding ring pieces and turned them into a small quilt or a framed piece.


These are the antique buttons that really drew me in, a lovely touch.
I think they made some money for the new library and I hope they decide to have one again next year.

  2. Like your wonky stars. Today I finished a small quilt with six wonky stars. Coincidence isn't? I will write about it later this week
    I can imagine it must be exciting that your daughter is going to be married.
