Fireworks Block

I bought the Fireworks pattern from Thimble Blossoms and i quickly jumped onto making this block.  It took me many hours, and I don't have intentions for a full quilt using these fabrics, but I just really wanted to make it!  I'm not sure what I'm going to turn it into... a pillow.. a mini quilt... no idea!  It's a 16" block, so if it went to a pillow I'd have to sash it to 20".  I'm leaning towards a mini quilt as I type this... I need more decorations in my messy sewing room :)

Sharon's Block Swap... Block

Just a quick post to share Sharon's block for the LVMQG block swap!

The fabric is From Little Things by Sarah Fielke.

Fabric Pulled for Wonky Stars Quilt

My next quilt is completely inspired by Fresh Lemon's Twilight Lullaby Quilt.  Only my color scheme is green orange blues and grays. 

I made a couple of test blocks:

I absolutely love the little cars and firetrucks!

It always takes me forever to combine fabrics for a quilt.  I doubt myself over and over and have a hard time deciding if it matches.  Some of the above fabrics probably won't make it into the quilt.  And some I will pull out of these stacks only to put them back in later after I convince myself that it will look fine in the end.  Anyone else have this problem?

LVMGQ Block Swap - Love Quilt

Today is Nevada Day! (We have our own state holiday!) With my free time, I finished three Love Blocks for Zany Quilter.   This was my first block swap ever passed to me.  I unfortunately didn't participate and make my own blocks because A. I missed a few meetings this summer due to vacations, B. I couldn't decide on a block, and C. I was scared.  But I will figure out something and participate in the next one coming up in January.

(I didn't realize until I was halfway through the O's that I screwed up the sew order of two of them. I hope you don't mind?!  It's still an O!)

Here's the package that I got.  Super organized!

Here's my final mess I made:

I love these piles

Check one project off of my list!

I need a new camera.  My iphone takes better quality pictures than my regular camera does now.
