YEAH- BLOCK 10 and a Break



HERE IT IS!! Block #10 of Judy L's BOM. Now we get a break till Feb 1st. I hope I stick to it! LOL Most of you know how I am-I have lots of w.i.p.s (works in progress) hence, Wippy. All fabrics used are Thimbleberries except for the background. You can see a picture of Judy's quilt and what mine should look like when (different colors) completed...http://www.patchworktimes.com/Star-BOM/

back to quilts for the twins! watch for pics of those! I started the second top today, thankfully, they dont have to be completed till Feb. hehehe

L@@KEEEE almost there



Here is the top so far--I have to trim the outer edges and then add the borders--I did NOT enjoy assembling this--too much on the bias stuff going on! hehehehe
tomorrow will play with the borders--I am going to change those around and make it wider and not as long (I think)...I wont worry about that now! toodles

THIMBLEBERRIES catching up!!











the pictures here are of month's 11 and 12---12 already because our time together in Dec will be partying and eating and sharing ---nothing unusual about that, but it is Xmas that month! :o) All that is left to do is assemble the top!. what in the world is dogtooth? looks like flying geese to me...I was so tempted to leave these out after seeing all the cutting, sewing, marking, etc that was required. Still looks like geese! Glad I didnt leave them out--the top needed them! hehehe
If I get the top assembled, I will post a pic before Turkey day--if not--have a wonderful one, stuff yourselves, be thankful always!

JUDY L's BLOCK #8


Here is Judy's #8 block! YIPES--this is all of my second attempt--doesnt match up perfectly like the others but it will have to do or else I will stress more! LOL no 2 actually looks 85% better than no 1. but I can settle for a B instead of an A....
and because I lured you here to the *desert*--here is what we have for FALL right out our front door. on the left (orange) are Mums, on the right is a Nandina (Domestica) and at the top are Mountain Marigolds! I love Fall up north but this will certainly do in a pinch!
