Well . . . I still haven't cut the fabric for the strips and blocks yet. :( Maybe this weekend???
I have got the next row of blocks done. :) Now I'm ahead of schedule . . . with the blocks anyway.
Here's a close up of the sewing block . . .
I really LOVE this one!!! Wonder why? ;) This block will also have three mini pieced quilts added but of course I haven't cut them yet.
Here's the best friends block . . .
I'm not sure about this one. I pretty much like the fabrics I choose. The faces and hair are bothering me. What do you think?
Here's a close-up of the gorgeous shoe block . . .
Aren't they cool?!!! :) And how about that pink cat?
He's soooo cute!!! Yes it's a boy cat in pink! ;) His name is Bob. I had to give him up when I moved a couple of years ago. :( I really miss him and love him. I'm sure he wouldn't have approved of me making him pink. He was a kitty with lots of personality and attitude. ;)
These are the next blocks I'm working on and the last ones for the quilt.
I guess I'd better get my be-hind moving on the strips and blocks and start piecing this thing together. Now I'm ahead of schedule on the blocks but behind on the piecing.
If you'd like you can find out more about this Stitch & Quilt Along here. You can also read about my progression with the quilt here, here, here and here.
Until next time . . .

ReplyDeletethese blocks are ADORABLE! so sorry you miss your kitty :( I have 4 kitties (and 3 dogs, a parrot and 4 turtles). I purchased a home in a town I don't love just so I wouldn't ever again have to convince a landlord to let me keep them.
