I'm so glad that you are doin' better DD. One day at time. {{{HUGGS}}}
Mirabelle - I remember last March wishin' I had some o' your rain. :) They say our lakes need 30" o' rain ta git 'em full again. We just don't want it all at once like ya got. :) I'm really likin' all o' the chatter we are doin' on these threads again. It feels like comein' home. :) |

Here is my Sugar Bowl Block. I won't get the second one done till we get back from our camping trip next Thursday. This took some work as I ended up just cutting the pieces down and re-sewing them. I like how this one turned out.

Oh, It's so cute!!!:thumbup:
|
Oh ladies, the blocks are so pretty this week. I pieced my blocks except for the 9P in the center of SDream as the cuts don't play nice with inches and rotary cutting. Wish I would've used different fabrics in it. Oh we live and learn! I was thinking that sugar used to come in cubes and maybe that's why the block looks so rigid.
Glad to hear you are in the stitchin mode again, DD. Mirabelle, you've rains to contend with now. We have cold--55 degrees F today. Won't be long and snow will be blowing in from the NW. [ATTACH=CONFIG]368123[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]368124[/ATTACH] |
JeanieG ... ITA with you, that it does look quite nice. The colours and fabrics work well together to give it almost a candy-floss sense to it. Can you tell I am in fair mode? :)
OKSGlad ... That's HOT! As I type it;s 4C which in your world translates to 39F and makes more sense to me. Am I that old? :) Getting colder for sure ... and it's a damp cold these last few days and the coming week looks much the same. And then we should have some Indian Summer soon, I hope, too! |
Love your block, Jeanie-reminds me of cotton candy!
|
Jeanie, your block was worth the effort. It really turned out nice, and you used dots too. Very nice! Have fun camping. It's nice that you and your DH can go tripping. Do you meet some of the same people every year?
|
Have fun camping, Jeanie, my dh refuses to re-winterize the travel trailer, so it just sits there. He wants me to sell it; I do not want too, so I use it for storage.
Love the block with dots; I saw strawberry ice cream with sprinkles. Its a nicely done block and that feels good, doesn't it. |

I must have been really tired at 1:30 AM when I posted. No pics showed up! So here they are. Plan to work on the next two today and then start threading my way backwards.
|
It makes me think 'fall' lovely colors and great construction of the blocks! Like that blue.
|
Jeanie, that sounds like so much fun! Do you always go to the same camping spot? QNS..too bad so sad that you can't go camping. Oksewglad..what good looking blocks. A couple of the fabrics are very similar to the new KT fabrics and for a moment I thought you had gone on a FART without even telling us. BTW, isn't 1:30 a little late for a cowgirl to be up....or is it the quilter that just couldn't quit? How do you keep going?
|
Thanks. GGal I'll have to check out the new KT line. Sometimes fabric lines use the same design but in different colors and call it new. Imagine that. And yes the quilter took over, plus the caffeine I ingested the day before while at WDE. I don't drink much caffeine so I was in overdrive! Oh and naps are good.
QNS, originally I thought my blocks would have a lot of blue in it, but now finding myself using lots of colors. |
Jeanie--I like your pinks and your dots look great.
OK--very nice blocks...good variety of colors/fabrics. |
OK - Those are darlin' blocks nice contrast & colors. I'm so glad that ya posted 'em again taday.
|
Very pretty blocks, OK. Love the colors!
|
JeanieG your block is so pretty, love your fabric choice.
Oksewglad your fabric looks like autumn tones to me, beautiful:thumbup: |
