It has certainly been a strange month so far. We've had snow (Winter), rain (Spring), heat (Summer), and blowing winds (Fall). And I see we are expecting snow again this month.
Well enough of the bad weather. Let's talk quilts. I've been working on a few projects. Here they are.
1. Pat Sloan's Home Is
This is a block of the week. And the blocks are all different sizes. If you are interested in making this quilt all the blocks can be found on her blog.
2. Barbara Brackman's Hands All Around.
Directions are given for 8", 12" and 16" blocks. I have chosen to make one of each. At the end of the year I should have enough blocks for a couple of quilts.
3. Barbara Brackman's Ladies Aid
This is block number one. The pattern calls for 15" blocks with hearts appliqued in each corner. I decided to make the blocks 12" and will try a different setting.
4. Fig Tree's Strawberry Sampler Mystery
Yes you are right. It is a new BOM I signed up for. Thank goodness some of my other projects are at an end so I have time to do another.
5. Lexington BOM
6. Quilt Doodles 2021 BOM
I still need to do the button hole stitching around this block.
7. Ready for Spring
Top is finished and I have to figure out how to quilt it. I love how it turned out.
8. Shine On BOM
Just 4 - 6" blocks this month.
That's it for now. I have to take some more photos of projects I will share at the end of the month. I know I have lots of projects but they are usually only a few blocks each month.
I've started working on my UFO for the month. It is Barbara Brackman's Yankee Notions quilt. I had all the blocks made. Today I cut and sewed the sashing. Then I need to add 2 more borders and it will be done.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you found something you liked.
Hugs, Cathy
Love your little house block. That is going to be such a lovely quilt with those colors. Ready for Spring turned out really great. I had to go look up Quilt Doodles. What a fun winter quilt this is going to be. You sure keep busy. It's a happy way to spend time.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt doodles block is soooo cute...
ReplyDeleteNice projects in the works...

You have so many wonderful projects going - Cannot pick a favorite - I like Pat's and of course Barbara Brackman's, I just have to close my eyes....... Almost finished with my UFOs - 2 more quilts to put together and I am caught up - of course 2 others need to be completed with hand work. Hugs
ReplyDeleteI can’t even pick a favorite this month. They are all wonderful and you are amazing!!! You hooked me on the Woolen Willow quilt, Ready for Spring. I have 3 blocks made...wool on cotton. My girlfriend is stitching along with me. Thanks for enabling us...lol.
ReplyDeleteEach unique and a great addition. We had 4 inches of snow yesterday. Winter just won't let go.
