9-PATCHES


I won our little block lotto this month.  I requested 9-patches, any size (3", 6" 9", or 12") and any colors.

These cuties arrived from Marianne.  4 of them finish at 3" and the giant is 6".  Too fun!

SHOPPING


So, after guild on Tuesday, we went to the quilt shop.  I got this new cutting system, by TrueCut.  They are the ones that show the children using it in their ads --  easy - safe - accurate.  We shall see.

Notice the partially cut selvage on the left.  That's where I left off last Sunday.  Haven't been in the studio all week.  The finger is healing nicely so far.

NOT A GOOD DAY IN THE STUDIO


Second cut of the day, and I sliced off a tip of finger skin  Ouch!  Much blood and pain later, here it is.  Maybe I need to get one of those Klutz Glove things.!  Ouch!

LOYAL UNION SAMPLER

 
This is my first Loyal Union Sampler block, B-2 Camp Curtain.  These are 6" blocks and the quilt is by Jennifer Chiaverini, my favorite author.
 
 
No, I didn't need another ongoing project.  However, I do want to do them as a quilt along with others, and the group is starting now.  You can learn more about that, and join in if you want to, here.
