Oops, I did it again...


I need another project like I need a (another) hole in my head. But, with designers like these, how could I resist?

I have joined the “Blockheads” sew-a-long with Betsy Chutchian, Jo Morton, Lynn Hagmeier, Lisa Bongean, Jan Patek and Carrie Nelson

It began on March 8 and will run for 48 weeks. Each Wednesday we have a new 6” block to make.

The first one was by Lynne H. Here is my “Whirlygig".



The second one, “Aunt Dinah" was from Betsy Chutchian.




And last week’s was from Jo Morton “Four X".



Read all about it (here). Looks like fun, doesn’t it??

  1. Cute blocks! I've got enough sampler quilts in my possession! I'll save my "must do another one" for something very special.

  2. They look really good, Wendy! As you said, with these designers, I thought it was impossible to resist! I was on board before it started--even ordered Betsy's bundle of fabrics, but the best laid plans...you know the rest. Haven't done more than print the patterns, and that tells me that the timing is wrong for me. I probably won't join in at this point. I'm glad I can enjoy your blocks. Will you finish them in the potholder method?
