I chose my Eagle block for my Ohio Sampler. It is not quite finished. I need to add some stars to it.
I'm going to add the stars under the wings and tail. I might even put this block on point and make it the center of my quilt.
The other two blocks I have made are Crosses and Losses and Old Maids Puzzle.
Now I have to decide if I want to make more blocks or make a smaller quilt using the blocks I have already made.
I also have a finish to share with you....
I love how this turned out. It is 16" x 16".
Well our sunshine is gone again and the rain clouds are back. We are expecting rain for the next 4 days so it looks like I will be getting some sewing done.
Yesterday I spent the day cutting scraps into usable pieces. Some I cut with my Accuquilt Go dies and some using a ruler and rotary cutter. I did take a break and went to the store and bought a little plastic stand with 8 narrow drawers in it to house my scraps. It should take up less room than the plastic shoe boxes I've been using.
Have a great day and thanks so much for stopping by.
Don't forget to stop by Karen's, Lori's and Luann's blogs to see what they are working on.
Hugs, Cathy
