ARE YOU MAKING THIS BLOCK?

 Do you remember the blocks I was making during the last Happy Scrappers meeting at the Attic Window Quilt Shop?  You can read about it here.  (scroll down)  Marjorie, a reader of this blog sent me this picture of her block.  She was interested in making it after she read about it on the blog and wrote me for further directions.  I asked her to send a picture if she made one.  Above is her beautiful block! I love the fabrics she used.  Thank you so much Marjorie!  I hope you continue to make more and send pictures of your progress.

I'm making slow progress.  I'm just using scraps but I think these blocks will make a nice quilt, especially after I add sashing.  Are you making any of these blocks?

DON'T FORGET:
  • The Jingle Bell Hop is Nov. 13 – 21st.  You get a free table runner pattern with the purchase of your $5 passport.  Also available for purchase is a darling ornament kit and pattern.  There are four shops participating in this fun event:  Quilted Memories; Queen Bee; Pressing Matters, and the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Get your passport now at a participating shop.

Really cool blocks, Caroll! I love how yours are coming along. And I like them without sashing too.
