Just looked and the February block is now available. This is just too cute. I started it, but have changed it a whole bunch.
I have many things of my grandmothers, mothers, etc., and am going to sew them onto the quilt. Mom's old pin cushion that was behind the door at the farm has a new home, grandma's embroidery scissors have a new home, as do some buttons, spools of thread, hookd, eyes, you name it, it is in their sewing boxes.
I'm not sure how many of the actual blocks I will do, but when I'm finished my sampler, I will have many things from people who were very near and dear to me. Right now I have mainly made blocks that have small blocks on them that I can sew things on to.
I am considering printing a picture of my grandmothers and mom onto fabric and making that part of the block that their items are part of.
