Hello Everyone!! :D

Elisabrat is your Hostess for the month of August, but she has asked me to post the August block, for her. She has been ill with phneumonia for almost a month. Please eveyone wish her well!! Thank You..........Cheryl

August's block is called, June Braid. It is from a BOM collection on Blue Mountain Quilter's Guild site. Here is the web site, to get the directions for your pattern.

Scroll down to the first row of blocks & it is the one on the far right. I hope everyone enjoys making this one, too!! :D

Now rev-up your sewing machines & go to work. I can't wait to see all of the beautiful blocks that will be made.

Let's have fun together!!
:D :D :D :D

I don't know how soon they will appear. This is one hard block, imho.

I have the block saved to get to later as time permits.
Looks like an awesome block! (nice link too).
Thank you Sulabug and hope Elisabrat feels better soon.

Ladies, Guess What? :D

I went over to my Mom's today & we cut out her August block. She started sewing the Braid part together & it goes together really slick & easy. I could hardly believe it myself. I am working on mine & hope to post it very soon. Give it a try, you'll love it!!

I am glad you asked this question!! :D In the picture of this block it doesn't show a flower. I thought with the main block being 8 1/2 inches square, a person could really show off a pretty piece for floral farbic. I have used a large print of an Iris flower, with matching colors for the braid. I think it is looking really nice. I will post it soon!! Good Luck!!
