30's quilt

This is a small quilt I did to practice marking a feather template. I have a larger version of this to quilt soon. I don't think I will be able to say I don't do feathers to much longer.

Back

I'm back!

Did anyone miss me? I took a little vacation (8 days) and managed to lose a whole month. I have lots to share with you and hope to get some pictures together over the weekend because I'm sure you don't want to just read about what I have been doing without pictures.

I do have one picture to share with you. I made a crayon roll to take to someone special.

The first and last phots show the colors the best. The fabrics are so busy that the quilting doesn't really show.

Block of the month - May & June

June block - I pressed all the seams open on this block amazing the difference it makes. I normally am a press to one side kinda girl. May blocks - Yes, I did fall behind but I'm caught back up now.
