Blocks

Aside from eating too much turkey and partying like a rock star
this weekend, I did get some sewing done.

I worked on my 15 mins play BOM quilt.
I did nine of the twelve blocks and sashed them with black and white fabrics.
 Here is it all pinned and ready to quilt.  That was Thursday.

Then I did Jessica's Bee Block for our Modern Bee.
Jessica sent us great directions and the blue and white sashing,
and we were to add our own fabrics for the windows.
I can't wait to see how this quilt comes out,
great idea.

I also worked on Our Modern Guild blocks for our next
group quilt.  

And today, back to quilting the BOM quilt.
I did mostly FMQ and I realize I need to practice more.
My curves aren't good, kinda jerky.
I guess that's what happens when you do
too much straight line quilting and you are out of practice.


So I think I'll stay in this week and practice my FMQ and give up my rock star ways,
for the moment anyway.  Hehehe.
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!
