Enough blocks.............


I have enough pieces for a 36" x 48" baby quilt.  I need to rearrange them a little first.











There are 2 different kinds of rectangle triangle blocks and each twist block of 6 pieces uses 4 of one and 2 of the other.  Than means a lot leftover all facing the same way.  I need to make another quilt or use them for a border or something.  I love leftovers.



Have you seen the new Tula Pink neon prints?  I had to have a couple of them.  My photo of the pink elephants was washed out and the color wasn't true so I decided not to show it. These giraffes are pretty cool.



I didn't care for this yarn in the skein but it knitted up pretty nice.

We might have another freeze tonight.  I hope it will be brief so it will not damage anything.

Leftovers are the seeds of a new project or two. Love the pink and whites even though they are a pain.

Begetting! That's what happens when you have stuff left over from one quilt that leads to another. A never-ending sequel.

those giraffes are cute - the squares you did up in pink sure went fast.

I love this quilt, leftovers too, the giraffe fabric is wonderful, and your knitted square is a delight.
It was 38*F here last night. Brrrr!

Hugs!

We are still in the 40s overnight and into the 60s by mid afternoon - still not really "warm" but definitely better than a couple of months ago! Your pink and white HRTs are terrific - what a pretty baby quilt.

I really like your twisting pattern for pink baby quilt. It has a fun contemporary look to it. And you giraffe fabric really made me smile.

That was my favorite setting of those you showed. I got chilled taking S to the ophthamologist this morning.

I really like today's top arrangement - like twisted yarn. The zigzags don't jump out at me, this seems very serene and harmonious. And the neon giraffes are fabulous, the leaves make a similar shape to the pink blocks.
