20 Quilt Blocks Finished!

 It took all week, but I just finished all 20 12' blocks for a quilt I'm working on. All blocks were made with 2.5" strips in five different color sets. When I put the color sets together, they seem to make an 'X' and an 'O' pattern and I haven't yet decided how I will put them together. Here are a couple of ideas:

 

There are four blocks of each of the five color sets. I could also break them up into four block quilts with large borders and give them away as baby quilts.

I'll have to think about it for a few days. Please leave a comment if you have any suggestions or like one more than the other.

Thanks,

Hello Stitching Bloggers!

I'm creating this blog to share some of my stitching creations. I love to sew and enjoy working on all types of projects. I've made tons of clothes and costumes, items for my home, gifts for friends, quilts, pillowcases, and many, many other things.

I just purchased an embroidery machine which opens up a whole new world for me. I've never done any machine embroidery before and I'm excited to begin this journey.

There are a million projects forming in my head so I must get started right away. Please join me as I share my embroidery/sewing projects with all of you creative bloggers.
