Fabric Postcards

I've made some new postcards for my etsy shop. But first I have to figure out how to take a decent photo that doesn't make the card look crooked. They are perfectly square. or, um, rectangular but I can't seem to get them to come out that way.

This one should be called Two Left Feet.

More Blocks

June's Sunshine Quilters hostess is Bingo Bonnie. She is requesting some string blocks with red centers. She will be donating these to the Heartstrings Quilt Project.

I have joined another swap. This one is called The Four Seasons Quilt Swap Summer Block Swap.

Boy that was a mouthful. You will make a total of 40 blocks (20 mailed before July 15, and the other 20 by August 15.) You pick whatever color you want and what you will get back is an assortment of colors. The block seems easy enough for anyone to make correctly, so it should make a happy type quilt.

Blocks

I have been making miscellaneous blocks to complete my obligations. The last of the Birthday Block Swap is for Brandy in Texas. She requested a 12" log cabin in blue and pink.

I also made two blocks for Kathleen of the Sunshine Quilters. She requested a 12" Friendship Star block made with novelty prints for a boy or girl. I swore I would never make another one of these blocks, but here they are.

These blocks are perfectly square but somehow my photos always make them look cock-eyed. Does anyone have any tips on how to correct this?

I have also completed blocks for the June Block Lotto, but I can't show them until June 1.

Our anniversary trip has been cancelled due to rain, rain and more rain.

Friends for Christmas

Block 6 - The Sleigh. I had a perfectly good reason for skipping over block 5 and making block 6 first, but I'll be darned if I can remember what it was.

String Blocks

I have been working on several projects, none of which are ready to be shown. But in between, I will make anywhere from 4 to 12 string blocks at a time. I now have 2 sets of 48 blocks. I may put them together myself or I might just send them to another Heartstrings member for completion.
