Lollipop Block Number Six

Every block seems to be a different adventure, I never get tired of picking out the fabrics. I now have six lollipop blocks finished, probably will be taking a break from working on my blocks until after the holiday season.

Thank you all for your willingness to share your techniques, your photographs and your support. It is an absolutely wonderful place to be. Wishing you all and your families a wonderful holiday season.

Happy stitching,

Roseville left side panel

I didn't know how to post a cropped pic to this blog, so please excuse the visual clutter?

I've finally finished the left side panel of my Roseville Album. Well, all except for the trimming, and I think I might add an additional berry or two? They're such a fun and easy way to add a bit more color here and there? It seems like I never want to stop?

With holiday shopping and running errands, my panel did a lot of sitting. It felt good to pick up a needle and thread last night and take a few stitches!

I guess the other side panel will be next?

Hearts and Flowers Quilt

I just loved making this quilt for my daughter, she LOVES Pink!

Two of my quilts

Here is my second block

Sorry for the long delay but i have had a shocking cold and just getting over it now. Can't say i really like this block i noticed a did a mistake in this block the cactus thing in the middle should be a different shape too the rest but it will do.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day to take pictures of the next 3 blocks but it is really overcast i am so over the rain it has rained here for the last 2 weeks non stop would really love to see some sunshine.

I just wish you can see the real colour of the background fabric it is a pinky lavendar colour is is really divine.

Enjoying all your work ladies.

Till next time.

Barb Rose

Hello,

I noticed there are a few Barbara's so I've chosen

Barb Rose (Rose being my favorite flower).

I look forward to sending some photo's of my quilts

Bye for now!

Stars and Sprigs

These are the new additions to my Stars and Sprigs quilt. I made a few more appliqué blocks and made 3 stars to see how it goes. I did cut fabric for more stars; but have not finished the sewing. I will not trim the blocks until it is time to sew them together. The 2 blocks below are blocks 11 and 12. Block 11 was done over the Atlantic Ocean going east and 12 coming back west bound. They were in my carry on baggage; but the airline asked me to check my bag. So I did. The bag was lost; but I got it delivered 24 hours later in the middle of the night. I was so worried that I would not see them again. Never mind the new shoes and hat in the same bag. ;-)
