Dec. 6th brings two more blocks

Two blocks arriving on one day is a pretty good day. Opening the envelopes/boxes as they arrive is a lot of fun. My husband may not admit it but he too has become curious about this project. Looking at the postmark is always interesting because you never know where the block(s) is (are) coming from.

Debra sent another Jacob's Ladder block. You may not be able to see clearly but it's made with fabric that has a camping motif. I love the green fabric and how it picks up some of the green in the camping fabric. My daughter is fascinated by what you can make with squares and triangles. I'm hoping she'll try to make a block like this in the New Year. I think she can do it.

Here's a block from Sandy. This block is amazing. I know to the uninitiated it looks like a bunch of rectangles, squares and triangles and it IS. BUT...if you could see how perfect the seams are on the back and how perfectly flat this block lays you'd be quite impressed. I've decided to give this block a try in the New Year.

I've noticed on this 'quilt journey' that all of the blocks are so well made. You can see they're made with care and attention to detail and just imagine the love that went into each block. These blocks inspire me and always will.

Debra and Sandy, I thank you for caring and for supporting this project.

I'm pleased to have caught up all of the blocks. I'll continue to update this blog as more blocks come in. And more are coming ;) How cool is that?
