Happy National Quilting Day!

The National Quilting Association began celebrating National Quilting day in 1991.  It is set as the third Saturday in March.

I have one block to share.  It is a birthday block that I made for myself in shades of pink.  My birthday is near Valentine's Day.  Can you tell?  The pattern is called Birthday Cake and it is a free pattern from Ellison Lane Quilts.

Who's Bad.

The pattern for my latest block came from fandominstitch.com  It was part of the Rock Our Socks Design challenge.  I think Gaya nailed it perfectly don't you?

Which Shoes? Witch Shoes

Back in November,  Soma from Whims and Fancies hosted the Something Wicked Comes This Way  Halloween blog hop.  I decided why not and contributed my first ever paper pieced quilt block, Broken Tombstone.

Soma was very kind to my struggles getting this done.

There were so many awesome blocks that we hopped to.  I get distracted, and flit from one thing to another; I might have lost a piece for a while; AND this had a lot of piecing.  But I FINALLY finished my first block from the hop.  It is Witch Shoes from MKissa Creations.  Aren't they awesome?
