Easter Eggs

Today I decided to make some batik Easter eggs for the dining room table. I got the pattern and tutorial from http://retro-mama.blogspot.com/ I enjoy reading different blogs and I find lots of patterns, there are so many crafty people!

Spring has sprung!

When the days become warmer and the sun is shinning, the ice on the lake is starting to break up...it sure is easy to forget the winter we had!
I've worked all winter on "The Joys of Winter" quilt and I need a break away from it. I worked on the joining blocks two days and I'm having difficulties piecing them together properly. So, I'm talking a break from it. I think I'll work on a few small projects that I've saved from other Blog Spots. There are so MANY good and talented quilters on the blogs, I wonder if I will ever get to that point with my quilting! Have a great day everybody!

Border Blocks

Well, for sure I found these blocks a challenge! To get all the points correctly lined up was difficult, I'm glad I have a seam ripper! Now to try "Flying Geese." There are a variety of different blocks to be made in order to piece all the blocks together to make the final quilt.

The main blocks are finished...now to make the joining blocks.

Block number 7

Block number 7, "Edward & Francis."

The flying ace!

It's raining, a good day to work on my quilt blocks! This one is called "The Flying Ace."

Block five.

This block is called "Jolly."

Finally, another block

Finally I got another block finished, I've been so busy. This one is called "Flakes."
