I'm finally retired and feel I can do what I love. I'm so happy to be out of the rat race! I try to quilt, read and knit as much as possible. I love to get comments and will respond to each and every one! I hope you enjoy my little blog as much as I do! Thank you for visiting me!

More Blocks
I'm only 4 blocks shy of piecing this quilt top together. I need 49 blocks and I have 45 done. The remaining blocks will each be made of 4 mini blocks. I haven't even started to cut the strips yet. I'm hoping they won't take too long. I can't wait to finish this quilt top!
These are the 12 blocks I just completed yesterday. Some of these blocks have weird combinations of prints which I did on purpose. I think they will all blend nicely when I determine the final setting of the blocks.
I made more progress on Sweet Tea and Green Beans. This is such fun! I love finding the perfect color/print to complete my block. It's nice to be able to applique again. I love how busy these blocks are! I don't think I've made anything like this before.
