I am almost caught up with my Bitty Blocks. I have October left to do and I have already started cutting for it. Maybe tomorrow I will have all available 11 months complete. For the picture I put them in order (except for November, I didn't want to leave a placeholder space for October). I like how they look together--reminds me a little of a Nordic sweater. 3 and 4" blocks:
BTW, yes, I did purposely turn around some blocks... I was irritated after reading about a friend who was publicly called out for missing a point on a block, and this is my way of saying--who cares? Enjoy the process because if you don't then the joy is missing. Quilting then becomes a chore and that's really the last thing I want to do in my creative endeavors.
And because I cannot get enough of this goofball...
Loki is now a year old, and one huge cat! His size right now is very close to what the mama cat's size was. He still likes to lay on his stomach in a "superman" pose with his back legs out, and when he collapses into a laying position he lets out a chirpy "oof" sound :) Lately he's decided that he wants to be an outdoor cat and will race out the front door if given a slight window of opportunity. Because the neighborhood coyotes are becoming more open about showing themselves, Loki will remain an indoor cat.
However, I did have a good laugh when I saw this coyote vest. I wonder if I could make up something for Loki? LOL!
Wow very cool. Yours is so very different from mine. It looks calm. Loki has personality.
ReplyDeleteThough I do like that I am doing just the blue and white blocks, I'm glad it's almost done, I am getting a little tired of the blue fabrics. I haven't decided if I will do a border yet or not... it will be 64" wide, but I think it might need something more. Loki is definitely a nut!
DeleteYour blocks look great! I love the random block here or there turned...it gives it even more interest! I think I'll sew mine into rows soon! What size did you make your flying geese? I love Loki...I vote for keeping him indoors too! :)
ReplyDeleteThe flying geese are 1.5"x2" finished. It was retreat project back in June since it was a lot of mindless sewing while talking :)
DeleteI noticed that my first basket block on the row isn't showing, it also looks like an oddball, but I didn't notice that one until weeks later! I may not have set them that way if I was paying attention :)
Beautiful. So fun to see how different yours and Julies are. Love them both.
