I missed last week's report but here I am. I haven't bought any fabric in the past two weeks. I found these pink and white 4 patch blocks I made a long time ago and put them together. There isn't enough of them to make a quilt so I pulled out a few fatquarters and made these larger 4-patches to go with them. I'm going to alternate them and add a border.
I pulled out this fabric to work on this Kim Diehl pattern. There are several patterns in this book that I would like to make.
And lastly I started working on some stringblocks again. I don't have many done for my challenge so I plan to spend some time everyday working on them.
My nephew came last week and put up some shelves for me in my sewing room. I need to organize them and get the rest of the my stuff up off the floors. I should have plenty of storage space and no need to be so cluttered....

well no wonder we haven't heard from you, you've been busy! I've always loved court house steps, can't wait to see yours!
I'd been quilting and not piecing for a while and really enjoyed starting back on my challenge. I'm doing crumb/string blocks but they're fun. I'm getting ready to do a set of red for my current quilt.
I love the courthouse steps and love a string quilt too.
There you are!!!!! Good to "see" you. :-)
You've been a busy girl. I've been carrying that Kim Diehl book from room to room with plans to make every quilt in that book. I love your string block and your nine patch block and the pile of fabric. WooHoo!
I have 3 of her books and love just about every quilt in them. That will be a pretty quilt for sure. I have a spool quilt done from one of her books that I still need to finish.
You've been a very busy girl! The blocks look great...and all from stash! WHat a good girl you are! I' looking forward to February when I can work on some of my projects.

What wonderful projects and lovely fabrics! The courthouse steps quilt is going to be gorgeous in those colors! Love the string block, too!
