BLOCK 7 & New Quilt

This should have been up this morning!!!

Sorry...here is Block 7.

Also, my quilt, Mrs. Mayflower made 

her debut in the Fall issue of 

Primitive Quilts and Projects.

The center is wool applique on cotton.  

You can applique cotton on cotton, if you prefer.

As you can see, my kids had more important 

things to do, than hold my quilt for a picture.

I kept hearing faint voices saying, 

"Hurry up mom.  My arms hurt."

It was probably their thumbs hurting, 

not from holding the quilt, but from texting.

Anyway,

I have received copies and would like 

to give a couple away.

Please leave a comment and I will draw 

a name on Monday.

Thank you all for all of your support.

Have a wonderful weekend!!!!

Block 6

It is hard to believe it is June.

Don't blink.  It will be gone in a hot second.

I am fresh from a trip to Knoxville, Tn.

My first trip driving cross country.  

My daughter was in tow with me.

It was an adventure.  I am glad I did it.

Anyway, it is that time of the month.

New Finishes!!!

Hello all

I have a couple of finishes.

First up, 

"Laundry Day" Sampler

This pattern is up in the Etsy shop.

Next is,

"Land of Liberty" Sampler

I used an ecru for the stars, 

so it is not showing up to well in the pictures.

Anyway, I will be adding a couple of 

borders to Land of Liberty and it 

should be going up into the Esty shop by Tuesday.

Also, I am planning a GIVEAWAY!!!!!!!
I will be giving away one of each one of my 9 samplers:

She Works Joyfully, Forever Mine, Vintage Sewing, 
Give Thanks, Welcome to My Home, 
Home to Roost, Friends in the Barnyard, 
Laundry Day & Land of Liberty.

The drawing will be in 2 weeks.  
I have 2 quilt shows I am getting ready 
for next week, so I will plan for the 
drawing the following week.
Keep a eye out for it.

And lastly, have a safe weekend.

To those who served and have given their lives, 

THANK YOU!!!!

Until next week,
