Zoe part 2

 It bothered me that I hadn’t made the correct number of squares so I made 4 more and added borders. Now it’s ready for quilting!

Zoe part 3

 All my blocks are squared up and ready to layout and sew. As I was following the diagram in the instructions I came up 4 short. Looking around for those 4 blocks was a waste of time for as I checked my phone photos I see I only had 20 blocks not 24. I swear I used 12 light and 12 dark fabrics…but I guess not. So my top is sewn together and now need to add some borders

And look at the 14 inches of snow we got! Snowed in!

Diatom block 4

I’m not sure if this is right or not but I’m not ripping out anything!  I’ve seen two variations so maybe it’s correct!

Playing around with Zoe

 I had a great aunt named Zoe but it was pronounced in one syllable;  this one has 2.  There are several ways to construct the block. First…sew blocks, (photo at bottom) then cut them up and sew back together!  So fun… I’ll probably go with the second photo.  There will be borders…

Then cut them up

Some ufo’s finished!

 Quilted and ready to go.  Katrina by GE Designs  love her quilts!  The last one is Kimberly, same designer

Charm square challenge is quilted

 Looking back I see I made this in August…it was so awfully hot then and now it’s really cold, 6 months later. But it’s finally done and ready to donate. Why did it take so long!
