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??
Cute blocks! I've got enough sampler quilts in my possession! I'll save my "must do another one" for something very special.
ReplyDeleteThey 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?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blocks Wendy! I look forward to following your progress on this quilt, I'm sure it's going to be an amazing Sampler!
ReplyDeleteIt has been fun to see all the different versions of these blocks, I printed the patterns but I don't think I am going to start this one...yet. Glad to see your beauties.
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy!
ReplyDeleteWell, that see along is so tempting - your blocks are really nice. Perfect piecing, which is no surprise. Look forward to following your progress.
Oops - that should say sew along. The auto correct on my Kindle is making me crazy. Aaaaaaarrrrrggghhhh!
ReplyDeleteI gave in and became a block head too. I have the first three pieced but haven't shown them on my blog yet.
ReplyDeleteSounds like just my kind of project! (I must resist, I must resist) It's great seeing your blocks in traditional fabrics.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors and fabrics you've chosen. Looks like you're going to be having lots and lots of fun!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a must do! Love your blocks.
ReplyDeleteWell, it sure looks like fun with all your great fabrics, Wendy! But, I will just enjoy yours. :D
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are looking great! I know you'll have fun with these. One a week is a piece of cake!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are lovely! I'm trying so hard to resist this one--all the designers are my favorites--I can understand why you decided to jump in!!

ReplyDeleteI've been trying to resist starting this one! Love your plaid.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are beautiful, it's nice to have a stash of Civil War prints. I really like the colors and the fabric mix. It makes me want to join this Sew Along.
