Some stitching and the Rambler

Today's block was not about the journey, but the destination.  I'm usually all about the "getting there," but on this trip, I didn't care for the ride.  As a matter of fact, I thought about getting off...but then I decided I needed to learn how this works too, and next time I will use my own form of transportation.  :)  If you are completely lost, I will explain.

I had just watched a tutorial on doing flying geese here.  It made doing flying geese seem so EASY, fast, and no bulk.  This pattern uses three triangles, thus my not liking the "getting there."  I will make another one of these blocks, and I will use the faster, no bulk method.  It is a 10-inch block and it is number 14 of 366.  It is called Rambler.

Last night I did the stitching on this block for the Just Takes 2 quilt.  Tomorrow there will be more blocks to download...and I still have two to complete from the first group.  At least I have all the embroidery done for this set.

I hope you are having an enjoyable weekend.  My family is spending some time together watching the NFL playoff games.  We have had one team win and one lose so far...hopefully tomorrow we will be two for two.  Happy Stitching!!  --Kristen

Cotton Reels

Block 7/366 for today is Cotton Reels.  It is an 8-inch block.

Chimney Sweep

I'm just going to say that this one was interesting...I'm also going to say that mathematically this block does not work.  If you are going to make this block someday, email me, and I'll let you in on my secrets to getting it to work.  This 10-1/2 inch block is called Chimney Sweep and is number 6 of 366.

Block 3 of 366 and A New Start

Wow, it is getting a little late on me here, but I did finish the block for today.  It actually didn't take as long as I thought it would, and it was easier to put together then I expected.
