We woke up to snow this morning. I decided not to go to Zumba because I have to take mostly back roads to get there. It turns out it was a good idea because there were lots of accidents. So what's a person to do?
I am sure you have seen these blocks all over the place and they are so darn cute! I decided to make one just to see how easy, yep real easy. Too easy, there may be more of these in my future. If you want to make one, or some, you can find the tutorial at Red Pepper Quilts.
I wanted to show you some potholders that Nancy who is a member of my guild made. She used my instructions and said they cam out perfect! I like how she centered "Merry Christmas" across the center. The polka dot binding is so perfect, the dots look like little snowballs.
I also worked on my Dylan quilt, 10 blocks down, 54 to go.....I like the green and I know he will too.
This weekend it is to be 63*. We are all going to be sick with the back and forth of hot and cold!
Enjoy it!

You always make the happiest blocks!
ReplyDeleteWhat do people do on these grey days if they don't have pretty fabric to play with?!
ReplyDeleteLovin' that green with the text!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to see your green and text, that was my favourite. I love your block, girl on a swing.
ReplyDeleteI'd stay inside and sew too if it was that cold here. It may be winter where you are but your swinging girl block is pure springtime! The Dylan quilt is really fabulous, those greens work so well mixed with your white/black fabrics. You've started something with your pot holders, Nancy's look like Christmas baubles.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you kept busy! I love love love Dylan's quilt!!! some of my fave color combos!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute block! Does this mean there are more to come?? Love Dylan's blocks....that's my green!!
ReplyDeleteThe pretty green blocks are looking great. I love it. The little girl on the swing...square in a square ..so very cute. Glad you stayed in out of the crummy weather.
ReplyDeleteBoth lots of blocks are looking great. Glad to hear you stayed off the roads.

ReplyDeleteYour new blocks is so cute and cheerful!
The dylan project is looking really great!
You make such pretty things! That Economy block is cute, but I refuse to be sucked into that a-long. :-O It's SO tempting! Dylan's quilt will be great. I sure like the colors and the randomness of your piecing. You're a great quilter!
