Sugar Loaf Progress

I decided to use this background fabric.

I got my triangles cut and set up at the kitchen table. I’m dog sitting and this makes it easier to keep an eye on the pups.

So far, so good!

Have a great day!

Fence Rail Blocks

I’ve been making these blocks as a leader/ender project.

I need to decide how I want to set them. Here is option 1.

And option 2.

Hmmm… not sure yet.

Have a great day!

Sugar Loaf

Here are some more blocks from my recent yard sale haul.

I believe these are called Sugar Loaf blocks.

I think they will make a sweet little quilt.

Have a great day!

FFP Update

My goal for this quilt along has been two 6 inch blocks per week. Here are the latest blocks.

And all together.

I’m trying to decide how many blocks I want to make. I’m thinking no bigger than a lap quilt.

Have a great day!

This and That

I’ve been digging through some old photos and found this. That’s my dad and me on one of my visits home from college. I think this was around 1984.

I told my sister that we needed to get these. lol

Gracie winking!

Blooms in the desert.

Daughter #2 thinks she, SIL, Mr. Wonderful , and I should try out this bike. 😂

But maybe not with these temps.

Happy Spring and have a great day!

Finish It Up Friday ~ Log Cabin

Ta daaa!

I’ve been trying to find different places around my yard to take quilt photos.

I love the design that emerges when the blocks are set this way.

The border isn’t exactly a “match”, but it goes and it was available in my stash.

Have a great day!

Another Gift!

My sweet neighbor, who is also a quilter, passed these along to me.

I zoned in on those rectangles and decided to cut some more light ones. I used this die.

This will be a perfect project to work on at the kitchen table while I’m dog sitting.

Have a great day!

Twofer

Confession time. The log cabin I’ve been sharing was actually quilted last week. I loaded enough backing to quilt both of these small donation quilts at one time.

When I got close to the end of the first quilt, I basted the second one in place.

Then I continued quilting as though it was one big piece.

Now I’m ready for the binding on this one. It is the same fabric I used for the border on the Woodland Clover quilt.

Have a great day!

Log Cabin Blocks

Another set of thrifted blocks! Again, a perfect amount for a wheel chair quilt.

I need to decide on a layout.

And I need to find a border.

Have a great day!
