I'm really moving along trying to catch up on My Favorite Things quilt. It's the only project I've been working on the last couple of weeks and yes I'm still having fun with it! :)
I still haven't gotten the fabric for the border strips and blocks cut yet. :( I want to be able to sit down and do it all at once. I'm hoping to get the chance to do it this weekend. :)
In the meantime here's my progress on the 3rd row which are the blocks for March and April.
A closer look at the gardening block . . . pretty flowers all in a row. :)
And a closer look at the tree block. I originally had the tree in green with lots of flowers like the pattern called for but I just didn't like it. Then I tried the blue alone. It still wasn't right. Then I added back a few of the flowers from the original one and I liked it. By the way... wouldn't it be cool if cats really were pink? ;)
And the last one for this row . . . the rainbow block. Such happiness! :)
Here are the next blocks I'll be working on . . .
These should be fun too! Did you notice there's another pink cat? I love pink and I love cats! :) Getting these next blocks done will mean I'm ahead of schedule. :)
Hopefully I'll get that chance to cut the strip and blocks out this weekend and begin sewing the blocks together and forming the quilt top. If you just found me go here, here and here to see more about this quilt. Thanks so much for visiting! :)
Until next time . . .
