MARCH FRIENDSHIP X AND +

These blocks have been so fun to make and I'll miss doing them when our swap is over      : (

This months blocks for Cindy






All our blocks together so far. I can see a little re-arranging will be necessary to balance out the colour. That sounds like a good job for my daughter.........

Also, it's Cindy's month in our Mid Century Modern bee. She asked for spider web blocks in low volume backgrounds with solids


The more of these blocks I make, the more I want a quilt for myself.  It will be amazing !!

I knit another little hat for miss J


which will go with her sweater,


which will go with her dress  (when I get around to it)

Have a lovely week end

I just love the quilts you have been putting together Carla. You have such a good eye for patterns and color.

And the hat is sooo adorable! Our little sorbet flower button is perfect on it!
