Calico Barn block is another finished block from the Old Barns quilt. These blocks are turning out to be fun to work on even though the roofs take a bit of figuring to do them! Different angles and such make it necessary to do them with freezer paper templates. It's kind of a learn as you go thing for me--I'm learning to take those lines on the freezer paper and the 1/4" seam allowances very seriously!!!!!
Also finished another quilt for Project Linus--this one is called Tea Party in the Park and is quite colorful.
We had a large group at Sit N Sew Frayed Edges today at Quilt Mercantile in Celeste--every chair was filled--lots of sewing and gabbing going on!! We have such a good time together on Tuesdays and really do get a lot accomplished. I finished embroidering another purse block today on Heirloom Romance--just have the beadwork left to do and then only 2 more purse blocks to go! Just a few more crazy quilt blocks to do some embroidery on and then I can sew it together!
Let quilting help you make someone smile!
