Catch-up blocks...

The past few days I got caught up on some promise blocks - a couple for birthday quilts and a couple just because!

I can show a few of the b-day blocks since the recipients already know about them...This is for a member of our guild who loves Moda - particularly the red and greens that were so popular for several years. Fortunately I have a large stash of them. I did try and mix them up a bit though (note the civil war background with a stripe!)....She also loves Churn Dash or Hole in the Barn Door style blocks so I went with slight variations...

The next is for a quilter who loves holidays and Sunbonnet sue. No brain-er as to what holiday I chose!

On a totally different subject...at guild last night my friend Shannon showed her first "Bonnie Hunter" quilt. Didn't it come out great!
Dobby is turning into a real quilter cat. He doesn't like to be touched but he wants to be in the same room as his humans. He has found a perch in my sewing room where he can keep an eye on me!

Now I see you multitask and make it look easy. Love all your projects and the company in your sewing room.
I read the article about women being better at multitasking than men and then it stated they cannot prove this for a fact. Must of been a man that wrote it. LOL

Shannon's quilt is wonderful. Don't you love getting those little things done and off your "To Do List"? Your animals seem to very involved in your quilting! LOL!
