Labor day 2013!

I really did work on quilts last week although not much to show for it.  Many days were spent taking out quilting on a baby quilt - which of course has taken 10 times as long as doing it in the first place.  But almost ready to re-quilt it!

Here is the Mystery QOV top put together:  Kind of weird...

and here are the 8 blocks completed on the Nabby's Dowry quiltalong: I'm doing mine in blue HST scraps.  http://www.heartspunquilts.blogspot.ca/

Friday's progress on things

Working with these QOV 'bonus quilt' parts, kind of tedious - squaring up 2.5" and 2" triangles, snipping the dog ears, finding I need a few more of each.  I had hoped to be finished with it this week, but alas I am not yet. 

Then I've done the 7th block in the Nabby quilt-a-long.  I know I will need a lot more than just one of each of these, so why haven't I done at least 2 of each one??

Sunday catch up

Catching up from being out of town, working on the QOV clues, plus the latest clue on the Nabby's Dowry mystery.  Here are the 6 squares so far.

Sunday morning flowers

This winter-hardy hibiscus is a gigantic plant this year, maybe it got lots of water!  Such a lovely bloom, it measures 10" across.

Last block in the Suffragette quilt a long

This is the last block, now to figure out a setting and work on that.  So fun for the last 49 weeks!

Nabby's Dowry, block 4

These blocks are so fun to put together, nice to have hundreds of HSTs to choose from!

Friday - Clue 3 of QOV "Framed"

Clue 3 is complete, ready for the next clue.
