From I Don't Do Dishes...
Fat Quarter Bundle of Angela Walters upcoming fabric collection "Textures"(Yummy Yummy)

"Sequence"

For A lovely year of finishes I put together 9 out of 20 blocks I made last year in Craftsy BOM 2012www.craftsy.com



The fabric on the back was donated by a gal at one of my quilt guilds.  The colors work pretty well I think.
I started 2 quick charity quilts for boys. I figured why make one when it is almost as fast to make two. I need to make the sandwich and get them quilted this month hopefully. 

 I finished up My favorite Block along blocks 10,11,12
Finished Blocks 5 and 6 in Skill Builder BOM
OH and I finished my Make IT and Wear it clothing personal challenge when I made a silky like top. 
All of these are in more recent posts.

Whew I finally am caught up a bit.
WIP is a block for the new Modern Block Quilt Along 2

Around the Block Party!

Image
"Around the Block" party finish this week. 40 "x 40" approx.  My last week was so productive that I only have a small finish so far this week.  My lqg got together one afternoon to make improv house blocks. It was so much fun that I made a whole block party of them.  I was trying out an idea for a color challenge using a paint chip that has 3 colors. This one had an amber orange color, a chocolate brown and an aqua. I sort of mixed in some gold too but it was fun trying out a color scheme like this and I think it would be fun guild project.  I love how they turned out and and it has started some talk about doing some outreach work for Habitat for Humanity homes. These would be great to do and each house adds a bit of whimsy.  Linking up with Let's bee social @  Sew Fresh Quilts and NTT @  My Quilt Infatuation and Amanda Jean @  Crazy Mom Quilts  and Show off Saturday with  Sew Can She

WIP - End of Summer

Image
The weather lately means it is the end of summer. I still think my new quilt block quilt is pretty sizzling hot!  I love this block and how it came together. So far I added the corner stones and surrounding half stones. I really don't think I want a border on this but will use the orange or yellow for binding maybe. Still deciding. No idea how I am going to quilt around those jagged blocks yet either. Any ideas?  I have the back pieced and should try to get to it yet this week. Linking up with WIP Wed. @ Freshly Pieced and Let's Bee Social @ Sew Fresh Quilts and Needle and Thread Thursdays @ My Quilt Infatuation and I am the Participant Highlight today for A Lovely Year of Finishes @ SewBitterSweetDesigns and Fiber of All Sorts   yippee...go check it out!
