New blocks

These are my 2 blocks for July- I have some applique blocks finished but haven't photographed them yet . Its been a busy time with my garden and visitors stopping by so I don't get much time in the sewing room. We are supposed to have storms again tonight. Weather has been hot and humid. Hope you are all having a good summer- suppose it won't be long and we will be complaining about the cold weather.

Finished 2 more blocks for my sampler quilt. It is "Gingerbread Joy" and has 5 gingerbread people in it but I may just applique and piece some more blocks for it. have a great weekend. Mary

Halloween fun (early)

Good afternoon, been doing a little sewing so thought I would show you my bats. Our club is making a hanging for every month and will sell chances later. My month is Oct. so this is mine. Am also working on my BOM but haven't quite finished it - maybe tomorrow. Have had lots of guest during June so didn't do much. Hope you all have a Happy 4th an thanks to the veterans for our freedoms. Mary

Good morning quilters- I am back again. Don't know why I am so slow with keeping up but sometimes life gets in the way. CBQ is visiting and we did a couple little projects- but we are keeping busy. I have a sampler class this afternoon and they have 25% off at the quilt shop on red, white and blue fabric so guess what we will be doing.??  Have a great day.

2 more blocks for my sampler

I just finished these blocks that I am making for a sampler thru our quilt shop. The little ones are only 6 inches and look how many pieces it has. Sure glad I have triangulations

We do 3 blocks each month and my next one is an applique. I am punishing myself by doing them but am determined to finish. Happy sewing. Mary

My round robin : (

Good morning quilters.For the last few months I have been doing a round robin in my quilt club. The ones I worked on were so pretty and I am so disappointed in mine. My DH says its ugly. It probably won't show up very well but I  put a basket with birds and heart flowers in the middle. I bought 3- 1/2 yds of batik to match. These are 2 of the some of the ones I worked on and the bottom one is mine.

.. One row was supposed to have flying geese- one stars and another applique.

Sampler

These blocks are from a sampler class I am taking at our local quilt shop. The pieced blocks are all half square triangles. Sure glad I have triangulations. Another windy day in South Dakota and we are praying for rain. Today I am piecing some of my larger scraps for a quilt back. Am trying to downsize but it Ain't easy. Have a good day. Mary
