Blocks Received during the week

Hi everyone,  boy! going to work sure eats into your
blogging time, doesn't it ;-)

I have received some more blocks in the mail during the week, and now I can post some photos.

First up is a block from SylviaM - for the January QBSA my photo does not do the colours justice - it is actually a bit browner/warmer ;-)

next is a block from Cecelia QBS Mom, as a substitute block for an inactive November swap partner - thank you Cecelia, this block is beautiful - once again, my photo does not do the colours justice - it is rich red/gold tonings

I do have a fondness for fabrics with gold in them ;-)

Blocks received - thank you so much

I have received two beautiful blocks in the mail this last few days - one from Cecelia QBS Blog Mom and one from SylviaM QBSA for January

I am unable to post photos just yet, but will get to them on the weekend.

Thank you ladies, the blocks will look great in my quilt.

I am currently doing some temp work on a short term contract - it is nice to be out and about earning some money, but I sure do miss my blogging ;-)

Another block has arrived safely

Cecelia, my November swap partner for QBS, has advised that the block I sent has arrived, so now I can show the whole block. 

Cecelia asked for star blocks in deep shades of red, blue and green.

I quote Cecelia "The colors are just right and the workmanship is great"  **doin' a happy dance**

thank you for your lovely words Cecelia

More block swaps completed ;-)

I was able to get some more sewing done this last few days - the cricket was on the TV, so I was left to my own devices ;-)   I think I'm gonna love this summer

I managed to complete:

• the sewing swap for Craft Mad - Merry, your tags will be posted tomorrow.

• the block for Cecelia - Block Swap partner for November

Cecelia, your block will be in the mail tomorrow.

• the block for Linda - Christmas partner for December

Linda, your block will be in the mail tomorrow.

Linnea, your October block is almost completed and will be in the mail this week too.

More sewing done **smiley face**

I finished my November Australia Quilt Block swap this morning for Alethea in NZ.

Alethea asked for square blocks in cream, white lace blue/white.  I hope that lace blue is a very light, soft blue ;-)

here is a snippet

Alethea, your block will be in the mail on Monday.

I only have one more block swap to do for this month - one for Quilt block swap for Cecelia.  I have washed my fabrics, now to start cutting ;-)
