August Blocks!! Yay!!


Hi, guys! August is my month, and I'm so excited! I'm planning on using the blocks you make for a quilt for my son Jake. I'd love for everyone to do 9.5" Map of the States block. There's a tutorial here. The fabric packages will be going out on Monday. Can't wait to see the finished blocks! Thanks so much!

Meg's Blocks

Late, late late.

And I am sorry! Late is not my style.
If you look at my blog, you can see what I have been up to
(other then moving and starting a new job!).

This is one of my blocks...channeling my encyclopedia set.

And here is my shelf of older books,
special hand-me-downs
from my grandma!

And the fabrics up close!

It is in the mail today Meg!

Meg's Childrens Book Section

One day late! I finished one block last night and the other tonight. The color in the blue/green one is off because I photographed it at night, sans flash.


The story on the tilted book (which I wish wasn't floating so much): this is the last bit of fabric left from my niece Alex's quilt - which was the very first quilt I ever made. I used the other leftovers of this fabric in the doll quilt I made her last spring for her 4th birthday, which happened to be about 2 weeks after her sister was born so I wanted her to have something special.


And a bonus shot from my husband of both with my "assistant" napping on the job. He's taken up photography as his hobby and is learning how to use a camera we bought from my brother (a photojounalist by trade).

Meg's June block


Mailed it out June 30, Meg.
