Lately I have worked on blocks
These are the four 12" blocks I made for the block swaps
Anvil, Jacob's Ladder and Starflower |
I love how the Starflowers look so different with a change of fabrics
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am behind on my goal of a couple of Japanese blocks each week
the names of these blocks and others I have made are on a separate page HERE
I'm sure some of you will recognise some of the fabrics I am using...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and another 2 Trapunto blocks done at my Thursday girls stitch 'n bitch ....
There are 3 of us who live nearby and we doing these blocks together.....
I quite like doing different block quilts... give me variety
(you may have noticed I have a short attention span!!)
but I will suddenly have a bunch of new quilts
Righto - Gotta Go... there's more blocks to prepare....

Great blocks Fiona. I especially love the Trapunto blocks and you are not the only one withthe short attention span! I also get "sidetracked" by new projects :o)
I love your trapunto blocks, Fiona! They're gorgeous! And that's a lot of pieced blocks, too.....you've been so productive! Yay!
Awesome trapunto, very impressed! Who doesn't get sidetracked, that's one of the things I love about patchwork, there are no repercussions unlike paid work!
Wow Fiona!! Those trapunto blocks are gorgeous!!! Are you sure you need lessons?! lol! ... And the pieced blocks all look fabulous too!!! What a busy little beaver you've been lately!!! Hugs!!
Some great blocks there Fiona. I love those Japanese fabrics.
Your trapunto blocks are fabulous Fiona, and I love Jacobs Ladder I keep telling myself I am going to do a quilt in two colours..it's on my "to do" list!! I don't know how you find the time... do you every sleep!?!?!?! Hugs x

All your blocks are beautiful, your trapunto blocks are amazing.
fantastic blocks!
It's good to have a few projects on the go, and to shuffle between them. I think you juggle them perfectly.
Oh Fiona, Your Japanese blocks are stunning, so are the rest. Very clever lady.
Hugs
I really like the variety in all the projects you have taken on. They all look great. Definitely no reason to be bored here!
Your blocks are lovely, especially the trapunto ones..having friends working on the same projects is great support
I can say just one thing...OMG ....all the blocks are fantastic...
So many lovely blocks...they are all beautiful

What a fantastic lot of blocks you've made. I love the trapunto blocks, they look wonderful. I think "multi skilled" is the word you were looking for (not short attention span!)
Thanks for showing your Trapunto it looks Fabulous...well done!
cheers
All gorgoues blocks and I love those Japanese fabrics!
I'm with you on a short attention span :)
Short attention span, No, I'm just fickle. See one pattern, want it, see another, want it too etc etc etc. It keeps life fun. Great blocks, love the Christmas stars & the trapunto is amazing. Tracee xx
Fabulous Trapunto blocks. You are such a clever little chicken. You have made some wonderful blocks Fiona and yes I do recognise some of that fabric...looks good!
I just got an email from you that I think was maybe a hacked email. It wanted me to click on a link to watch a video. I deleted it and did not click the link. Started to send you an email, but thought this may be the better/safer way to let you know.

Wow you ARE busy - love all your blocks, especially the trapunto!!
All your blocks are gorgeous, but I particularly love the Japanese ones. As for getting sidetracked...it's like a virus in this house at the moment - and I think I'm the culprit!
You are so talented, I love the trapunto blocks, I have never tackled something like this.
