Along with these blocks I've been working on Luke's quilt. All the blocks are put together into rows and now I'm joining the rows. A little slower than I expected as it's quilt as you go.
Last night I made a start on my pincushion. I still haven't decided if it's what I'll send to my partner, today's results will determine that. I received the first photo from one of the swappers yesterday, and what a beauty it is.Karen has a lovely pattern she's going to share with me that I'm hoping will work for the summer 4SQS, so I'll need to make a start on that as well. So plenty to keep me busy and out of mischief.
Happy Stitching, and thank you for visiting with me.

What lovely pink and white blocks! I typically use darker colors as are in Civil War fabrics but it's nice to branch out once in a while. I'm narrowing down my pincushion choices and am glad to know that I'm not the only one who hasn't made one yet!
I love your stars!! So pretty, and all of those lovely pinks :) I haven't decided on my pincushion yet either.
Great Pinks!! Love Luke's black and white quilt as you go....
Hope to see a finished photo soon.
Those blocks are so delicate. I wonder if you are using foundation patching?
Bet you went to Benedict Station to eat...I enjoy the sandwiches there.
The white and pink blocks will be outstanding in the finished quilt.
The black and white has turned out to look so modern and manly...don't know if that is a good decription for a quilt or not...but you know what I mean.
Luke´s quilt is going to be wonderful, and the pink stars are so soft and delicate looking.
Hey Linda! Wow! Luke's quilt is looking pretty spectacular already, can't wait to see it all finished!! Bear Hugs! KRIS (Tag Along Teddies)
I love Luke's black and white quilt. I am getting a great idea for a new quilt for one of our sons. His favorite colour. Black and white of course.
God bless.
Luke is going to treasure that quilt! It is very nice, Linda, you have the gift for quilting! The sew-a-long fabrics are fresh and TOTALLY our of your realm! I think I like this new you. Heheheeee
Love the black and White!
PS you have been tagged
Nice pink blocks. And I like the quilt your working on. Reminds me of one I started for my son years ago.
Your pink stars look very pretty and feminine.
The black and white quilt as you go is stunning, I really like that one.
Sounds like you had a wonderful day.
That black and red quilt is simply beautiful!
Very nice pink starblocks...it will be very fresh and summerlike...*S*
Hi Linda
Thanks for de-lurking! I was hoping you would be one with ideas. Hexagon is the word I couldn't think of. I have looked for it at a couple of places (Joann's and Hancock's)but haven't been to my quilt shop yet. The only time I really have to go there is on Sunday and they aren't open then. I guess I will have to make a special trip over to get one.
I've just been lurking a lot myself lately.
I bought some black white and red recently myself.
My oldest grandson picked those colors for his room a year or so ago and I made him an afghan
or as he called it "a crochet" last year.
I thought the fabrics I picked were a little too girly though and now my oldest granddaughter has decorated her new room in those colors. I have been watching the progress on Luke's quilt closely.
I'm loving your stars too!qtmtyfv
I love this black quilt. It looks so refined and great! I love black...if I didn't have a blonde dog...I'd do more black in my bedroom. :)
I've been having a pink fling just lately so of course I think those fabrics are just gorgeous.
Love the blocks for Luke's quilt too.
Can you tell me how you are finishing the QAYG on the back??
Linda,
You're blocks are looking beautiful! I love the pinks. Luke's quilt is fabulous!!!
Your stars are beautiful - I love your fabric choices. Luke's quilt is wonderful - he will love it!
thanks for joining in the quilt along. I'll add your name to the list. I love all your pink fabrics!
