I decided to link up with Cheryl at  Meadow Mist Designs  for the Best of 2019 party.

I made hexi flower tops and then divided up some of the buttons she had saved.  All the kids used to play with her button can which was an old canned ham container.  This was one of four I made so far.     Signing up for an online Friendship Block Swap and asking a fellow blogger, Jen,  from my same city to join in.  We both had fun making our quilt tops and then we     had fun meeting Luke Haynes together. :)     My first entry into the county fair since 4-H days.    Tried my hand at value design of my own.     Tried totally improv curvy leaf designs and lots of fmqing which you can't see well on
