Whoohoo! Mail!! :-)

I just came back from the mailbox and look what the mailman brought!~


 The last swap blocks from Bingo~Bonnie.  :-))  We have been swapping My Blue Heaven blocks from Quilter's Cache for the past year (or maybe a little more, we didn't count the time, just whenever we got some made) and we are now at the end. We both should have enough blocks now for big quilts. :-)  If you looked at the block on Quilter's Cache you will notice  it is a 12 inch block. We downsized it a bit for our swap. And we decided that all the large triangles would be blue fabrics and all the small ones could be scrappy. All the backgrounds were whites/tans/creams scrappy too.  We used Triangulations to make all the small HST's and boy was it a time saver!  Now I just need to locate the rest of my blocks and I can start sewing this one together. Whoohoo! :-)

 I am trying out blogger's new template for posting~ so far so good!  It is really easy to add links and move photo's around. Thanks Blogger! :-)

Hope you are enjoying the beginning of autumn and had a little time to stitch today~
Until next time,
Have a happy!

I like the block pattern. I wonder what the whole quilt will look like with the secondary design from the blocks being set together.

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
