Above is my completed 'Block of the Month' star made from the pattern provided by Red Hen Fabrics~ it was easier than it looked and I'm excited enough to try my hand at making another one with different colors. Below is the next block for October:
It is mostly half-square triangles, no flying geese, so will be fun to do!
I also had pictures of my patches pillow I made out of the fabrics in my previous post, however I can't locate them right now when I need them the most, and so I will take more later...
Below are a few new acquisitions:
Such lovely fabrics, and a few were on sale, too! Though I am itching to put some of this to the test of rotary cutter and machine, I am currently embroiled in a project that is close to my heart. After my grandma passed away, my mom gave me leave to go through some of her clothing to see if there was anything I would want to use for quilting. She and I got to talking while picking things out, and we came up with the idea of making gifts for the daughters grandma had left behind. I don't believe any of aunts are following this blog, and so I will be able to post my journey through creating these pillows.
Happy quilting to everyone, and keep sane during the season's frantic gift making! (That bit was more for my own sanity than anyone else's.) <3
