BLOCK 11 and 5

Block 11

Well we are getting close to the end of our Mystery Block of the Month Quilt we just completed block 11 that means only 1 to go.  Then the hard work begins squaring up the blocks and adding the sashings.  Then there are all those flying geese around the outside....so its really a long way from being finished, but we have learnt a lot about cutting and piecing quilt block and keeping them square.



Block 5 Wishes Quilt

This one is a real lesson in quilting for us because each block uses a different technique that we haven't yet done so its great fun because we are learning all the time.  This time was a log cabin and it was really quite straight forward (I cannot bring myself to say easy).  I was always a bit scared of log cabins because they always looked so complicated but actually they are much quicker to complete than other squares.



Happy hour of course... there always is a happy hour and check out the beautiful scissor lanyard Lynne's daughter made her for her birthday.... a bit classy.
