We’re home and DH can tick another “Bucket List” item off….. I know I should have gotten his picture rather than the reverse, but……..”Old Faithful”/Yellowstone Nat’l Park was pretty cool!
Next, was the barn quilt project which is in the “done” category……..Now, I’ve managed to catch up with a couple (very small) quilty projects…….first, a lottery block for my guild …….
This is the sample we were shown, these are the directions (simple “Disappearing 9 Patch”)…
and here is the block I came up with……
Kinda fun to do something simple!
Next, a block for a guild member’s “Friendship” quilt. She asked for any 12.5” (unfinished) block of our choice done in yellow and blue combo. I chose the “Egg Basket” block from Lori Holt’s book……And my version (with a wee bit of vintage ‘flavor’)…..
Tomorrow I’m on to this wonderful project on my Juki……..Stay tuned………and it’s good to be back home (even if the chill is on the pumpkin!)……………
Welcome back! I am happy to see your lovely face and projects!
Awww……you are so sweet………..hugs………..
I love the way you used the lace doily in your egg basket block!
Thank you! I chose the block cuz it afforded the easiest use of a vintage piece and this gal had chickens/eggs up until recently!!!!
Welcome back. You will have had great time away but now there are a number of projects waiting impatiently for you to get on with. The quilt on the barn looks terrific……….wonder how one would look on a shed, a tad smaller! 😉
It would look amazing!!!! There are so many that are half that size (4’x 4″) or even smaller, next to “people” doors on garages and homes. Go for it!!! Be a trend setter!!!!! Hugs……
I’m glad to see you back, Doreen, I’ve missed your posts!
Awwwwww…….thank you……..
Doreen, we just returned today from Yellowstone! What a glorious place to visit! We saw Ol’ Faithful on Saturday, Sept. 22. We were amazed! So much to see and the weather was perfect! I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
We absolutely did! Lunch to talk over our experiences????
