Sewed the block -


For the Squirrel's Brother - ;))



I sorted the rest of the Batik Fat Quarters that I pulled the other day -


And should have enough to make a total of ten blocks for two tops -

6 blocks - set 2 x 3 = 48" x 72" - a nice lap size -

4 blocks - set 2 x 2 = 48" x 48" - a nice table topper size -

The backgrounds will all be different because I decided to use Fat Quarters instead of yardage -

Some blocks will be high(er) contrast -

And some blocks will be "blendy" -

But that's the FUN part of using Batiks -

The color ranges are beautiful -

The combinations are interesting -

And the finished blocks should be a pleasant surprise - ;))

Some of you may remember that I WAS playing with the backing for my Blue Floral Crumb Squares when I saw THIS Squirrel's brother on Katie's blog - HERE - and decided to chase him - caught him - and then decided to chase THIS one. Now that I finished the first block - and sorted the Fat Quarters for the next ones - I have yet ANOTHER work in progress -

And you wonder why I have SOOOOOOOOOOOOO many UFOs - ;))

It's those dang Squirrels -

I can't quit chasing them -

And BOB says it's good exercise - LOL - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

  1. I did three sample blocks for three different quilts yesterday. I liked them all, so I guess I have a squirrel problem also.
