The pattern is quite old and I don't have a photo - so it has taken me a bit of time to figure out what happens next and how it is supposed to look. Next step is to turn these blocks into circles. Progress report later.
The GTASB package arrived this week. First up I need to make seven of these little orange peel blocks.
They are all ready to cut and sew.
My next MM block has quite a bit of work in it. Here it is today
I think I'm enjoying this project more than any other right now. I love the green/red/cheddar combination.
And last but not least - the next AWS block I'm going to finish is this one
Wow, so much to do and so little time. Weather hasn't been great for sewing or anything else this week.
A big thank you to all of you who have been leaving comments. It is very reassuring to know that other people like what you do when you invest so much time and energy in it. It also gives me a great opportunity to find other sites and see what's happening outside my little world. As you can see by my ever growing and fabulous sidebar, there are some amazingly talented people in ordinary houses all around the world. Truly inspirational.
Stay cool,
Deb

It's always a plesure visiting your blog Deb. Good for you getting on with those projects. I love the colours in your son's quilt. Your MM looks so great! In fact I love all your blocks, you have a talent for putting the colours and fabrics to good use.
More lovely things at your place! I still love those GTASB blocks...the applique is beautiful too! Good on you for finishing your son's quilt...resist those sirens & their bewitching songs...Kaffe will wait but your boy is growing fast!
just love your blocks Deb. Do hope you are not getting too much of our weather. 40 tomorrow. I am over it and Summer hasn't even started yet!
Cheers

Oh my! I love those blocks for your son's quilt! Can't wait to see what they turn out to be! And of course I'm drooling over everything you're working on. :D I need to get back into quilting!
A good start on the applique block!
Your blog is never a disappointment. Good for you for working on/finishing up all these worthy projects. Quilters often seem to have more than one project going, and maybe that's what keeps the creative juices flowing. Nice work.
I've never been called a seductive temptress before but I'm sure I can live up to that name, especially where Kaffe's are concerned!!! I do love those blues and browns and can't wait to see how you turn them into circles!!! I have the Amitie bom, just haven't started it yet (got on board late and am up to block 2), I must get on. Your blocks here are fabulous as always I love coming to your blog Deb, always so incredibly inspiring. xo
I love the blocks for your son's quilt so far - they get turned into circles!? I'm intrigued. Your applique is beautiful so far.
Oh, I can't wait to see the blocks turned into circles. Very interesting!
The MM quilt keeps calling my name when I see blocks like yours! Really love the red, cheddar, green combination myself!
Looks like lots of great projects you've got going.
