More Happy Blocks

The second set of Happy Blocks are completed. Here they are all up on the design wall. They really do make a fun quilt. This is such a neat project the Heartstrings group is doing. All the quilts are just so darn, well, Happy! Take a look at their blog and see what I mean: Heartstrings blog.

Meanwhile the bin of pink strips keeps staring at me. It's a darn good thing they can't talk! I've got a good start on the rest of the log cabin blocks needed to finish the log cabin heart quilt. But, I think I'll put them aside for a short while and go back to working on the high school senior quilt. Now I just need to stop drooling over the Nearly Insane quilt...

Happy & Pink

It's nice to be able to post some progress for once. One set of Happy Blocks are completed and the top is ready to send off to Mary. I've got another set of center squares all cut out ready for framing...

Meanwhile, I was a little distracted this weekend. While Lynda was busy quilting a couple quilts on my HQ I spent today cutting pink strips. Lots and lots of 1.5" pink strips. I'll be seeing pink for quite awhile. A certain little niece likes pink. Pink rollerblades, pink ipod, pink backpack etc. Eventually these pink strips will be become two different blocks, here's the first:

I'll be seeing pink for quite awhile. I need 17 of these log cabin hearts and even more of the straight log cabin blocks. In between pink log cabins there is also the Sr. High double four-patch quilt. I guess I'd better get busy.
