Resting..........
The weather was beautiful yesterday, perfect for working outside but I couldn't get motivated to do anything so I had a day of rest. There was a TV show on at 9 last night so I sewed 2 blocks while I watched it but haven't turned on the iron yet to press them.
I did put the last 2 that I sewed up on the design wall with the first six blocks. Check out Lynn's quilt, my inspiration for this, hanging on her bedroom wall. It is perfect displayed like that to see all of the wonderful fabrics.

This will be so lovely--very inspiring...hugs, Julierose
I really like this piece - at first I was thinking it was quite different then some you do but really I think maybe it is just different colors than you normally use? I went to the link you shared and love the piece she has hanging and of course added another blog to my list to look at!
You and Lynn's quilt have now got me hooked. Will get my solids out one day soon and see what I can do.
Day of rest sometimes is the best and it's good you listened.
I am catching up from being away from the computer since the 4th so happy blog anniversary! I love the postage stamp quilt. I am going to have to steal/borrow that idea to use up my scraps. I think I would not go as small as 1" finished squares though.
I have enjoyed her creativity since you shared her with your readers. Thank you!
Happy to see your first few blocks together on the design wall! I'm cutting squares to get started with mine -- love the photo of Lynn's quilt on her wall.
It's fun to see each postage stamp block you add to your piece..... I did check out Lynn's blog and I like what Lynn said about memories of each tiny piece she stitched into her postage stamp. Plus I really liked her quilt on her bed.

These blocks are just fresh and terrific.
This quilt is going to be amazing . . . I absolutely love being inspired by your talent of using color and pattern, your quilts are all so happy. Hey, taking a day of rest, is a good thing, A very good thing!
I love your postage stamp blocks, Wanda! Thanks so much for giving us the link for Lynn's quilt. It is stunning, and I think your quilt will be as well! Now I want to make one for myself!! I love the quilt that Lynn has on the bed too! I am always amazed at the amazing quilts that can be made from such simple shapes...

Hopped over to visit Lynn's quilt - beautiful! How many blocks are you hoping to make?
How beautiful!! It always feels so satisfying to use those tiny squares. What a gorgeous quilt you will have with the bright kaffe fabrics!! Well done.
I'm quite intrigued by both your postage stamp quilt and the one that inspired you. Another project might be added to my to do list.
Love the bright solids you are using for this quilt!
I love these quilt bocks and the quilt. I’m starting to gather fabric to make one myself😊
