scrappy log cabin again.

i've put my last two quilts on hold to work on a custom order based on this quilt, only bigger, and in yellow, green and blue.

mountain baby blankets

my new friend, rachel, contacted me earlier this week to see if i'd be interested in donating blankets to babies in need in appalachian kentucky. i can hardly stand the thought of cold, blanket-less babies, so i'm off to make some receiving blankets. if you are interested in helping, feel free to contact rachel via her blog.

nest

another on my to-do list done! That leaves 2 'in progress' quilts, I am so close. I used the tutorial here to make this disappearing nine patch (except my starting squares were charm packs --5in square )

I used Tula Pink's Nest line of fabric (I love her!), and am happy with it. It's so bright and colorful! I had hoped it would be a little bigger (it measures 50in x 44in), but I ran out of charms...

I pieced the back with fabric from the same line.
***edited to add: I made 14 nine patches using 126 five inch squares******

blocks

2 spiderweb blocks for Ashley,
and two blocks for the bushfire quilt project. i'm going to be making a wonky star quilt soon. i love these stars.

daffodillhill winners

i used random.org to choose a number, and the winning numbers are:

number 171 is Kate/Massachusetts:

current project

almost finished with this one, I now only have 3 quilts in progress (yay!) counting this one, and I'm finished with the quilt top of another one. I really need to get some batting, so I can finish them!

are my kids the only ones who can't stay off a quilt? As soon as I lay it out, they dance (or drive) all over it.

daffodillhill GIVEAWAY!--contest over!
