This week I added the SEVENTH block to my
Summertime Sampler.

The classic windmill block.

Here is the quilt design.

I also began using scraps and making another quilt
With another set of colors!
Fun!






Scrappy goodness.

Monday making - this and that







This week I worked on a handkerchief quilt....
Something I’ve always wanted to try!
This picture doesn’t include the little cornerstones I added at the end.



Here they are!
Just a little appliqué helped give this quilt top a little spark of JOY!

I used handkerchiefs from some special friends
that have been stashed away here for a while now.


 
I also received these four little quilt blocks from my daughter.
This is how I arranged the four 9 patches.

And this is how it looks in a quilt top!
I love these colors....don’t you?

I also challenged myself to switch up the colors on my quilt along.

I made some blocks using some Red, blue, green and yellows.

Monday making - a quilt show

This week I visited one of my quilts
Hanging in the Long Beach Quilt Show.
It is in an exhibit called "Life's a Beach"
and traveling around to different shows.
 
While I was there
I was inspired by the gorgeous quilts of yesterday.....
So beautiful!

Love these colors!

And I would love to copy this applique.
So FUN!


I am working away on my summertime sampler.
Block 4 is now up on my youtube channel.

IF I have time I would really like to make another
Sampler using some reproduction fabrics!
So many ideas....so little time!

Monday making - red lilies and a quilt along

This week I began a quilt using what I call...

I realize “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”...
SO this is MY idea of 
The most beautiful quilt block.


What is YOUR “most beautiful quilt block?”

I also added the second quilt block to my little

The propeller block.

My quilt is made up of all solids.
Oranges, greens, mustards....

Hope it all comes together as well as my imagination says it will!
