January block from Linsay

I finished this block a couple of weeks ago and as I was doing the last seams I thought to myself, 'Why does sewing small pieces of fabric together make me so happy?'  I have asked myself this question before but never reached a satisfactory answer.  I did love making this.  I love how the interior of each small block is slightly out of kilter but the nine patch is firm in its structure.  Jennifer should have this block by now and I hope if fits in nicely with all the other blocks.  I am looking forward to seeing the overall effect.

Zephyr inspects the block closely.

  1. What fun pictures Linsay, and so good to see you...even though you are only 15 minutes away in real life! I love that Zerphyr is getting into the quilting scene too! As always, your work is beautiful and I will look forward to seeing this block in person. I have a feeling that this quilt is going to get finished before my January 2013 quilt is finished. Thanks Linsay!

  2. Hi Jennifer,
    I posted the block on Wednesday and the lady at La Poste said you would have the envelope by Thursday. I wonder where it can be? I should have driven along and put it in your post box myself!

  3. Oops! Sorry Linsay, your block has arrived! I didn't check my mailbox on Friday or Saturday but I just did now and it was there. It is now hanging on my "design wall" (I use that term losely!). Thank you!
