Joyce/Mimi...I can see a whole quilt with blocks of hearts, all embellished with different trims. Yours look wonderful. Dang it. My list just keeps growing of 'want-to-do's'!

Thanks SandyinZ4.
I have been wondering what to do with these blocks other then a quilt. What are some of you doing? Have considered table toppers, small quilts to use on door in place of a wreath (inside garage), or just mug rugs to pass on as gifts. I want to start doing something with them so they don't wind up with my zillions of orphan blocks |

Alright, here is my February block...because I am using civil war fabrics, I didn't want it to look victorian so I tried to make it look more traditional? I also am making some small pieces each month to work in the finished quilt...I am showing them to you so you can keep me honest and make sure I do it EVERY month! The civil war fabrics are not colors I would usually use, so it is kind of hard for me to stay true...but I will....

I just finished my block learning how to use embroidery stitches with my new machine. Since I only started doing these blocks a few weeks ago, I'm finally caught up and ready for the April block. What a great way to learn new techniques. Thanks so much for all the tips.

Great job, love the greens for March!
Wow, did you say you were ready for April...okay hint.....4 fabrics....dark for background.....other 3 bright and colorful! Of course, mine background is solid black, but the other colors are white on black, black on white with a bright blue...or did I tell ya'll that already? Hey I'll try not to eat too much Easter...and get it posted early. Not too early, I'm Central Time and I am NOT a morning person! But I'll have the message ready to be posted anyway! Hugs, Cajun |
