OK, so you know how I said I wouldn’t be doing any sewing because I was so busy tagging stuff for my Moms of Twins Club sale?  Yeah. Well. I had a stressful day today and needed to unwind with my sewing machine instead of my tagging gun. So I finished up my block obligations for the month of September.  I made two of them today, the rest were done earlier.

The first two are for the inaugural month of the Bee Addicted 2 bee.  Linzi sent us some Wildwood and a bit of muslin and asked for improvisational log cabins with muslin as the outer border to finish at 12.5″.  We were welcome to add our own fabric, and pinks were especially welcome.  There wasn’t quite enough muslin to frame the second block I made, but Linzi said she’d finish it up when they arrived back to her.

The next pair are for A Piece of Work BChristy sent some Christmas prints: a main fabric (light green, in my case), a secondary fabric (red print), an accent color (dark green), and some white.  She wanted us to use at least a little of the accent color, but otherwise the blocks were totally quilter’s choice. Oh, and we were welcome to add coordinating solids if we wanted.  The first block was just fabrics she sent, the second block I added some pink (and had barely any of that dark green left, but it’s in there!).

And finally, AmandaJean wanted to donate some quilts to Quilts of Valor, and put out a call for some help to get them done.  She asked for a maverick star in red, white & blue.  I hope this works with the rest of her quilt!
