Heart & Home Quilt



Well, despite having a shorter weekend (having worked overtime on Saturday) I managed to complete 5 more blocks on my ‘Heart & Home’ quilt over the weekend , which leaves just the one block to do (I’ve left my favourite one until last!!) – the appliquéd flower block! And then borders etc. etc .......... I shall have a little bit of filling in to do too with the neutrals, as no matter how hard I try (and I am using my ¼ inch foot), the blocks still don’t match up exactly and, I’m afraid I made a bit of a hash of the tree block, which means it’s ended up a smaller than it’s meant to be ...... but, hey, if you don’t tell, I won’t!!!!!

Sorry about the top photograph - it was taken at night!!

Julia, I don't know how you manage to do it, what with working so many hours and coming home to work on more blocks for your quilt! You do such beautiful work and this is coming along beautifully! You're always in my thoughts... after all, you are my Tilda's ummmm, grammy? I'm the Mommy! Or shall I say, Tilda's aunt! Hugs, Cami
