An Anniversary and Sewing Going Ons


Hello sweet quilty friends!

This week my sweet hubby and I will be married
35 years!!  As most couples, we have been through
many ups and downs but through think and thin he
has always been my BEST Friend.



I have been stitching up some of my vintage linen's
into a quilt.

(sorry for the bad picture)

This is what I had sew far.  Since I took this picture
I took the big basket off.  After looking at it for a
few days I just did not like it.  I think I like the smaller
motif's better?

I am not really following a pattern, sew there has been
some challenges.  Math is not my strong suite, but I am
working it out. lol!!


   PandB Textiles sent me this fat quarter pack of
1930's Toy Box Miniature's by Washington Street.


This is what I have sewn sew far.  I am sew in love with
these prints and it is sew much fun to sew.

This is another no pattern but is is easy peasy.
No thinking. lol!!

Here is how you do it.

Sew 3 2 1/2 x 6 1/2 strips together.

Sew 3 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 inch squares together, on the
side of the 2 1/2 inch squares sew 1 2 1/2 x 6 1/2 inch strip.

Now you have 2 different blocks.

All you need to do is rotate them in opposite directions.

If you would like a fat quarter bundle they are listed
 on my Instagram page.  I have 2 left.

Hope you have a wonderful week.

Love and Hugs
donna
