I'm Back :)

These are some of the blocks that I have made for Bea's little quilt. The name of the block is called Bouncing Betty - If I have time before school starts in again I'd like to do a tutorial on this block as I've learned some really neat tricks to it :) This block is a great scrap buster for those itty bitty scraps too :)

Here is a sneak peak to my December quiltie on the Swap Til' You Drop group. I'm a little bit behind getting it sent out but I hope to have it in the mail by Monday. My camera really doesn't like this quiltie for some reason :( I must have taken a dozen photo's and they all came out blurry. It also doesn't show the little snowflakes or the beads very well on this mini quilt.

Oh Holee :)

The first block of your little quiltie is finished though I'm having a hard time getting the colours to look right. I hope they look better on your computer then they do on mine ! This little block was a pain to put together, I had issues with the dragonfly's body being big enough to see LOL :) I saw more of my seam ripper this morning then I have in a month. Well I am off to go work on your quiltie some more, I have a million more blocks to make. If your wondering this little block measures 3 in.

Busy Stitching Away

I am busy stitching up the mini redwork months blocks that i posted about a couple of posts ago. They are working up super quick and way to cute - I like them so much I may have to make a couple of these mini quilts for a couple of very special blog buddies of mine :) I will be back to post photo's of the 3 that I have completed when I get home from work as this morning I rembered the camera but not the dang cord - grrr -

Do you like mini blocks?

This quilt kinda reminds me of the Dear Jane Quilt but better yet this quilt has free patterns to it. While browsing the net today I found this pattern over at Sentimental Stitches and my poor printer will be smoking tommorow as I plan to print out all of the patterns. I thought this would be a good quilt to practice my hand sewing on. The blocks are 4 inches ( finished size ). I plan on going to WalMart this weekend to pick up some fabric for it - yes I Have to shop WalMart can't afford the 9.00 + at the local quilt store on my limited budget. Here is the link :
