Quilt Blockin'


Here's a recent installment in the $5 Block o' the Month. They're really going half-square and quarter-square triangle crazy on these. It's a lot of triangles.

O Tannenbaum

I have become involved in a block of the month, self-administered by a group of quilting and crafting friends. There are maybe five of us and we all went in on the pattern for a fabulous christmas quilt called O Tannenbaum. Here's a link to one of the many quilt shops online that have it:

Here's the first month's block. It's paper-foundation piecing. It's fun to see how each lady's fabrics make her block different, plus everyone's interpretation of the instructions...

Big WibNews!

Baby #6 decided to stick around after all!

That's the whole news.

PS there's actually more: I went for an ultrasound today and there was a baby with a heartbeat and everything. Due date, May 20-something. That is all.
