A Modern Block

Our family had a busy,  happy and blessed time together over the holidays, and I hope that your family did as well!
Somebody in my family (I am not mentioning any names)....
got a little tuckered out after opening all of our presents....
I just need a wee little rest before we put our gifts away, Mom.....

I have been able to add a few more blocks to my growing pile of blocks, which always brings a smile to my face
December's  And Sew We Craft   Modern Blocks  Quilt Along block

 December- Modern Blocks Quilt Along block :
Crosswalk    designed by Angela Pingel
Blogged by Actually Amy 
Block by Amy @ Actually Amy.com 
I used my yellow and orange fabrics, to get more of these colors  into the quilt.  After all, it is block number 8 already!

Block 8    Crosswalk      Susie's Sunroom






Ok , Whiskers, let's leave it laying there!
Eight blocks along in the Sew Along already!




The next block:  a Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt block
# 10  Bowtie    (I used the paper pieced pattern in the yahoo FWSQ group)

#10  Bowtie      a FWSQ block  page 137 in the book
This block was fun and simple to put together.  
Hey, I finished the top row now!

    he way you describe the satisfaction of completing a quilt and the joy it brings is truly inspiring. And who knows, maybe one day I'll be able to showcase my own masterpiece, thanks to your guidance and the exciting adventures like theono hawaiian bbq coupon.
