I received my grid back and this is how mine looks. I really like how it turned out. I think I will add sashing and one or two borders. This round robin was a lot of fun and I am glad that I was a part of it.

I am done with the Round Robin block swap that I was participating in. Here is a photo of the house blocks I added to the last grid before I sent it home.

I finally finished sewing blocks that I had cut the fabric for over a year ago. I don't know what I am going to do with them but am glad that they are finished.

I made three blocks for the block lottery group. The name of the pattern is Antique Tile and can be found at Quilterscache.com.

I finished a quilt block for the Block Robin swap that I am currently in. It is a mother sheep with 5 baby sheep. The recipient's theme was a farm quilt. This is a pattern from Debbie Mumm's book Quick Country Quilting.

This is a pillowcase that I made for my daughter's friend.

I just thought I would post a photo of a pillowcase that I made for my nephew on his birthday. I went to the fabric store and bought fabric that I thought any small boy would like and chose this cute construction vehicles fabric. When we showed up at the birthday party I was pleased to see that the theme of his party was construction vehicles. The cake and all of the decorations had various contruction vehicles so my fabric was the perfect choice.

The next grid that I added to (see description below) had a "Michigan" theme. The quilt block that I added was an autumn leaves block.

These next two blocks were made by me to attach to another person's grid in the block robin(see description in earlier post below). Her theme was coffee. These pictures are not that great because they were taken with a camera phone.

I am currently participating in a block robin swap. There are six of us in the group. Each person drew a grid of 6 X 8 four inch squares on a plain piece of muslin. Then each person had to come up with a theme that she wanted her quilt to be. She then made a quilt block to attach to the grid. The grid then gets mailed to the next person on the list. As you receive each grid you attach quilt blocks that follow the theme of the grid. When you finally get your own grid back, you sew all the blocks together and then you have a small quilt to treasure. Here is a picture of the block that I put on my grid before I sent it out. This photo is a little washed out because the fabrics are much brighter than they appear. My theme was 1930's reproduction fabrics with shirting backgrounds.

I meant to load these photos up a while ago. They are more photos from the Dear Jane Siggy swap back in the spring.

I participated in the "Dear Jane" signature swap again this year. It was a lot of fun and I received some wonderful siggies in return. I used up about four yards worth of fat quarters and made 160 blocks.

Today I started sorting my big bin of scraps. My 9 year old daughter and my 6 year old niece were playing with the scraps and made a "quilt" on the bed. Here is a photo of their creation.

In the last few days I completed some 6" split rail quilt blocks. These were started about 2 years ago as part of an ongoing swap of split rail blocks made with pastel colors with white on white backgrounds. I swapped until it was cancelled and these were made from leftover fabrics used or bought for that swap. There are 21 total and they turned out well. My favorite is the multi-colored one made from leftover block units.

Here are a couple of close-ups of my finished lavender quilt top.

Yay! I am finally sewing again. I finished my lavender and 30's prints baby quilt top. It turned out really cute. Originally it was intended for my nephew but he is getting too big and I think it is not his style after all. I am going to sell it on ebay.

Wow, it's been quite a while since I posted. I really haven't done any sewing in months. I have recently cleaned out my closet and semi-organized my fabric and will start sewing today. The last thing I made was this primitive rag doll bunny which I sold on ebay. It is made from tea-stained and buttercream scented fabric for the body, and tea-stained cotton fabrics for the outfit.
