I saw on Sheila's Quilt World http://sheilasquiltworld.blogspot.com/2013/09/a-little-mail-today.html about the Stash Buster's Quilt Along at Linda's Quiltmania http://www.lindasquiltmania.blogspot.com/ and decided to join in, mostly because the first block is so cute.
I was happy to see that I have the two rulers needed. In fact, I used one of them for the first time making the Double Hourglass block. Thank you, Sheila, for posting about this. I think it will be fun.
I finished one of my polar bear You Got Cookies wall hangings which I began during the Christmas QAL. It is sweet. I love him. I can't show him off until December when we have our show and tell at Sue's (http://www.quilttimes.blogspot.com ). I did say "one of my polar bears." I made another one with a bright blue cap. I didn't have to do that because the first one, which I thought was bland, is not at all plain since he's been quilted, has cute brown eyes and a big blue pompom at the end of his hat. And I am loving paper piecing, even though I rip out more stitches than I put in.
God Bless You.
I am looking forward to seeing your Polar bear(s).
ReplyDeleteThe block you've done as a stashbuster is just lovely.
Love the double hourglass block and the polar bear wall hangings sound very interesting. Isn't it odd how a piece can appear bland until you quilt it and then it really comes to life.
ReplyDeleteYour block is great Joanna , so glad you decided to join in . Can't wait to see your bear :-) enjoy your day.
