A Blog Hop Is Coming...


A Blog Hop here on March 2 to March 8 !


Guess what?!  There's a Blog Hop coming here on Monday, March 2!

Six talented and amazing  quilters are coming  over to Susie's Sunroom, 
to share a pillow that they make, using  my new pattern....

It's  a tutorial style pattern, with directions for sewing up a 13 " by " plump pillow.  

I have showed you two of my pillows so far...

Red Letter Day Mini blocks-
           
                       
I completed a third mini Red Letter Day block, in pink:

Three  pink blocks for February  (7.5 inch )



 Pattern  Design by Camille Rosskelley  - Red Letter Day #177                                                                                                                      at Thimbleblossoms

Yes, I made the same mistake again !  Four of the half square triangles were put in wrong again, and had to be ripped out.   (Serves me right for getting a little smug, until the 4th row.)  But it ended up well.  ( I looked for the errors sooner this time, so there was less to rip out.)
I am ' bound and determined'  to not make the same mistakes in the fourth block!  We''ll see how that goes....




I'm off to my sewing room!

  1. Susie, those red letter day blocks in pink are really wonderful! Such a lot of tiny pieces!
    Well I am super excited to be coming to blog here in your Sunroom and hope I do justice to your very complimentary introduction... hee hee. You are really going to like the pillow I'm working on!

  3. I am so looking forward to this blog hop. I will have to sew really well seeing I'm in such good company. But that wont be hard with your lovely little pattern - and Amy's zippered cushion back.
