Like many of you, I'm on a mission to finish up OLD stuff right now. Yesterday I machine quilted and bound a table runner, did the household stuff, and quilted. Also spent most of the day waiting for a call back about the presc. drug coverage..grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! But on a happier note, THIS is what I'd like to be doing right now. I have about 2 yards of this vintage 36" shirting fabric. I think it's going to be setting blocks for these odd little squares I'm making. Happy Friday to all... WELCOME TO OUR NEW MAVERICKS !!! Posted by Picasa

I love how you are setting the newer bright fabric blocks with the vintage fabric! It is going to look great!

Love these blocks, very simple and yet, adorable. The PA/B is awesome. I love solids!! And the print you put with it goes great with all the solids the "gremlins" set aside on your ironing board. Speaking of ironing boards... come for a visit!
