One of my goals for this month was to finish at least two blocks from my Sweet Treasures BOM kit that I started last year. I got started and I couldn’t stop making them. I got 6 more blocks made – the last six blocks in fact. They look a little wonky, but that is mainly the photo and not the block.

State of the Stash – Week 3
Um… yea. No sewing going on this week. I did cut out several BOM blocks on Tuesday, but they are not sewn together, so they don’t count as being busted yet.
I did get 3 charm packs of Eden in the mail so I do have additions to report.

Flashback Friday – Fall Dance
This quilt was my first original design. I completed it, though it doesn’t show it in the photo. I forgot to take a picture after the binding was done. This was completed circa July 2005 in Oak Harbor, WA.
It was given to a friend who moved to VA right around that time.

Oh My Lucky Stars!
My first finish of the year!
This is “Lucky Stars” by Terry Atkinson. It was quilted by my friend, Susan Haushalter. I have had all but the last 6″ of binding completed waiting for me to figure out how to join the ends for a while now. I finally just sat down last week and did it.
This quilt is for my niece, Lucy. Now the problem is mailing it to her, since I seem to have a condition that causes me not to mail things out.
