Wednesday Things

Summer is flying by...I can't believe June is half over already...and with June came the arrival of the first block from FatQuarterShop's Designer Mystery Block of the Month...I really love this block and had to put it together the day it arrived...can't wait for number two! Yesterday's post over at the Jolly Jabber tells all about this block of the month...and they're having some fun contests right now to get this party started!

I've also been working on my "one flower Wednesday" project.  These little flowers are the perfect take-along project.  I cut one out each Wednesday and then put it in my purse to work on when I'm out and about...the one with the strawberries might be my favorite!

And I've been working on these cute little criss cross blocks...the third project from the Fig Tree Club.  These blocks are really fun...I'm going to chain sew the rest, so they should go really fast...and they're fool proof...the criss crosses will end up "floating" so there won't be any chance of cutting off the corners...my kind of project for these lazy summer days!

Recently I found a new blog I love...and was honored when they asked to feature one of my quilts on their post today.  Quiltstory shares different quilts from other bloggers and tells the story behind each one.  I've been following along for a couple of weeks now and love reading about every quilt...thanks so much Heather and Megan for including me and for taking the time to share so many stories!
