Blocks Completed

Went to my "First Saturday" BOM class this morning

and was so glad that our next block will not be quite as

labor intensive as this one.  Don't know if I'm just

getting slower or what, but this block took most of an

afternoon to complete.

While there got my kit for the center medallion.  I'm 

debating whether I want to use it in the quilt or use

it as a table topper.  Guess I'll make it up and then

decide once all the blocks are completed in August.

Picked up a few fat quarters to go with a project

I'll be working on in the near future.  Also, they were

closing out some rulers, so I picked up a hst ruler.

Price was too good to pass up.  Why is it that I can't just 

go to class and walk out without purchasing anything?

Then it was off to Hobby Lobby for some beads and

buttons so I could finish a Mother's Day gift.  Have no

clue what I'm going to do with a "zillion" red glass

beads.  Had to buy a whole container just to get the

12 I needed; but, I'm sure I'll eventually find a use for

them.

Was able to complete the last two"Pin Wheel Sampler"

(http://www.psiquilt.com) blocks this afternoon.  We were

to choose our own block and I selected "Sarah's Choice 

Pinwheel Block".  

Cheri will take these back with her in June
when she brings back my quilt.  So, I need
to lay out the blocks and decide what to use
for sashing, borders, and backing.


Rachel, has made this a fun and easy project to do.  When I saw this on her blog, I knew it was something I wanted to do and would get done because I LOVE Pinwheels.


Maybe while my friend and I are shopping
Tuesday, I'll take my blocks along and see if
I can find a fun fabric that will pull all the
blocks together.


Well, I think I'll call it a day and put my feet
up, relax and make a cup of hot chocolate (it's 
been cold and rainy all day) and read a good book.  Nola
