Whoohoo! I sewed!

It's always a great day when you can sew! :-)

I am hosting a swap of Bonnie Hunter's Pineapple Blossom Blocks (see previous posts) on the quilting forum at HGTV message boards. Today I worked on some of my sets. After laying them out with practice blocks, I nearly have a quilt top! I'm so excited to be swapping these beauties. I just love the pink & chocolate combination. :-)

On the home front... my amaryllis is blooming. :-) I've had it for years and it blooms about every other year. So pretty!

Decision Made!

I finally decided what blocks I'd like to make with my pinks/browns. Bonnie at http://quiltville.com/index.html has given me permission to host a swap on the HGTV message boards with her Pineapple Blossom pattern. :-) I made a few practice blocks and cut up a pile of my pinks and browns today. Tomorrow I will sew! I'm really looking forward to this quilt and can't wait to get at it!

**ok, I know there is a trick to making the link Bonnie's name, but I think my brain is asleep! :-/

Play Day

I took a little play day today to do some practice blocks. I would really like to do a pink/brown quilt but can't quite make up my mind how I want to do it! These are today's blocks and I've decided I really wouldn't care to make an entire quilt with either block. ;-) We'll see what tomorrow's 'play' brings...
