the latest fiddling project: messing around with one inch (finished) squares
On the quilt frame now:
This pattern is makin' the rounds in our quilt class. The above quilt on the frame is Debbie's, a friend in class, and it is the second time for her to use the pattern ~
since Ginny's was finished in September! (This one is Ginny's)
Debbie's quilt is a Christmas present for her sister, and since I have a three day weekend, I'm finding time to quilt it!
These little guys are blocks that have me fiddling with the small stuff again...what can I say? It's been fun to be able to sit for a few minutes at the end of a long workday and put one together. What will they become? I'm not sure yet . . . probably a table runner....Find some time to create this weekend. Give thanks for all we have, and hug a Veteran!
"Trust in the LORD, and do good; Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass." Psalm 37:3-5
I love the blocks you're working on! :0)
ReplyDeleteLove the new blocks you are making! And the previous post of spool blocks. I've made bags of them like around 600. Someday they will be a quilt.
ReplyDeleteOne inch squares - that's just crazy talk! I'd never even attempt something that fiddly. You may inspire me though because they look so sweet all finished.
ReplyDeleteHappy quilting. I managed to get nothing done yesterday so Im making a big run at productivity today!
I really like the blocks you're working on! The super scrappy background in particular!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see your post. You are doing such a great job of just keeping on and having things to show for it. I'm not there. I'm not even getting time to read my favorite blogs. Interesting how life changes.
ReplyDeleteYour Spilt Nine Patch blocks are great. One inch finished squares are fun, are they not?
ReplyDeleteOne inch finished blocks? Wow.... those are cool! A great project to fiddle with at the end of a long day...
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your three-day weekend!
I love those little blocks! Little blocks are my comfort zone.
ReplyDeleteI got to hug a Marine vet last night, and I'll talk to a few more tomorrow after the parade through town. I won't get to hug my own Marine until December!
Good luck with the quilting.
ReplyDeleteThose blocks with the HSTs are lovely!!
I adore you small blocks with the low volume prints as the background. So lovely!!
ReplyDeleteI like those blocks. You can put such variety into them! Have a blessed day.
ReplyDeleteLove the blocks...and love what is on the frame!
ReplyDeleteThose pretty scrappy blocks are right up my alley!! Love the mixture of fabrics you have going in them. A great quilt in the making, Pokey. Carol
ReplyDeleteLove all the scrappiness! I need to start working on my scraps. It doesn't look like much is there but they never seem to dwindle even after I make a scrap quilt.
ReplyDeleteHey Hey…Whata you say….lets all see what's on Pokey's quilting frame today!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL….just a little cheerleader cheer for inspiration and to help keep you going!!
Scraps are our friend!!
Just Can't Cut It is such a great pattern. And I love your blocks.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving Pokey
ReplyDeleteThinking of you
Love what is on your frame, and your blocks!
ReplyDeleteThose are some small pieces in your wonderful blocks. Love the low volume fabric in the background with the darker squares forming the design. I have seen quilts make up of this block pattern. They make up so nice. The blocks will be a wonderful table runner.
ReplyDeleteSure like your blocks, Pokey! I have a pile of 1-1/2" pieces that I put together into 16-patch blocks. I've been doing that for more than a year now, as the mood strikes, or when I need leaders/enders on another project. I anticipate having some fun trying to figure out what to do with them, when I'm able to get some time in the sewing room that doesn't involve "obligation sewing." I have too much of that!
