Went into the office today in the middle of some leave... just as well, as the outlet pipe of one of our essential aircon units was blocked and water was leaking into the offices... technician called and all seems to be fixed.
Here are three more completed blocks from
Just Takes 2. The first two are pieced on paper...
...but this one is hand appliqued - I now have a much greater respect for all those fully hand appliqued quilts out there! This is first time I've attempted anything like this, and yes, there are some odd stitches in it, but am quite pleased I tackled it. I can now complete the assembly of Part A - this was the last block, and it's taken me on and (mostly) off since July to finish.
One of the blogs I like to read is
Block Lotto and although I've made 2 or 3 blocks I've kept them for myself, but I think this time I'm going to sign up and these are going into their pool. They are are 6" x 9" and were simple and fun. Daughter T also made one in red and white, also looks good, but she wants to keep it!
And here are the 25 half-sewn blocks for Easy Street, waiting to be pressed.
I've just noticed that the watermark on the photos still says 2012 -
I'll have to try and remember where in Picasa that can be changed!
