January?

Of course, it's not January! But what I worked on yesterday and the day before is....the January Block from Bunny Hill's freebie - a Tisket, a Tasket....

and yes, there are so many other things I should be working on right now....but I had cut and traced the pattern pieces for a few of the blocks a week or so ago...and finally decided it was time to start! The quilt blocks are not very large - only 8 1/2" by 8 1/2" (or 8" by 8" when finished). My favorite one so far is the one for my birthday month (August) - cupcakes, too cute!

Anyway, here's the picture of my January block (it's really not crooked).

La de da!

No....no....not the designer! ;) Another Shepherds Bush finish!! Hard to believe...no finishes for so long...and now all these little ones right in a row! I finished up the specialty stitches this morning for Quaker Heart. I have been in a "Shepherds Bush" mood lately. I do have a few more smaller kits...but I think my Vintage Christmas quilt, block #1 is calling me!

A sheep and the other half

I finished my little sheep from Shepherds Bush, "Home". But when I went to attach the little hat button....my button did not have any holes drilled into it. I guess I could try to do it myself, but knowing me....I am sure the button will be destroyed. I'll try and give Shepherds Bush Shop a call later today and see if I can get a replacement.

And the other half? I finished by second Blackbird stocking. :) Very "Halloweeny" with the rusts and black.

Thanks to all of you who continue to stop by and visit. I love reading your comments and following all the links to your blogs.
