Pink flowers and yellow blocks from The Academic Quilter

 Hi everyone! I hope it's been a nice week where you are. We had a freeze a few days ago (!!) here in Maryland, but I have been too busy/ lazy to get any plants in yet so I was just cold, not traumatized. At least there was sunshine!
 
Continuing in my quest to keep on keeping on, I've made a few more things in the last couple of weeks. We're coming to the end of the semester, so 'just blocks' is okay with me right now. Take a look at the next step in the Angela Walters ...

Stars of Peace block #9 from Nestlings By Robin

 Welcome back for block 9, Shooting Star.

This month's block is BB#1128b, Blocks and Pinwheels and

attributed to Old Chelsea Station (a mail order company 

started in 1933, Barbara Brackman's Encyclopedia).

I renamed it Shooting Star.


As much as I like pinwheels, 

the new name felt more in line

with the theme of this quilt along.

There were so many stars along the way

who contributed to the birth of our nation 

and the continual upkeep of our values.

I know somedays it feels like a struggle to 

still believe, but we must, just as they did ...

Sewing Along from Daisychain Quilter


This year I need to finish some of my UFOs. I started this quilt when teaching several groups in the local area, I wrote the instructions and demo the contsruction for a new block every week.

All the blocks are six inches finished but I have the instructions for the blocks to be twelve inches finished.  I am going to make a few more new blocks as well as demo the original blocks.

So keep watching the blog for written instructions and Youtube for the demos which I will link with the blog.

I used a bundle of fat quarters ...

RSC Week 12 - More Yellow Blocks and a few Finishes from Grandma's Red Needle

I thought I was done with yellow for this month's RSC (Rainbow Scrap Challenge). 
Nope! 
Those of you who have followed my blog for some time, know I'm cutting scraps into squares in sizes from 1.5" to 5". 
I'm trying my best to use those squares, but it looks like some sizes are less used, like 3.5". 


This box containing 3.5" squares were overflowing and it was hard getting the cover on. 
Something had to be done! 
I got the idea to make 9-patches in RSC colors! I started with yellow.


I got 3 ...
