Amy's (USA)Blocks for Doris

These were fun blocks to put together. I didn't have many texty prints to pick from, but did have novelty prints. I absolutely love the hedgehog fabric and wish I had more!

I had to share the next few pictures-
my design wall makes me happy! It is full of the hexagons I have been EPPing during my children's practices,Doris' blocks and a few other minis and blocks.



 I am so excited about this house block. My sister and brother-in-law just purchased their first home. I drafted a paper pieced pattern based on the picture and am making it as a housewarming gift to them!

And this bottom picture is very special. It is my 8 year old daughter making her first quilt! She is using charm squares to make a 27 inch square quilt. She is so excited to be sewing! I am just as excited that she wants to learn! :)

  2. Amy, I love the photo of your daughter, she is so cute! I'm glad you are teaching her to sew and that she wants to learn. What a great way to spend summer days (spoken from a teacher!) The lady bug fabric is wonderful! Looks like you have been busy with lots of other quilting projects too. Enjoy!
