I am showing blocks that I tested for this issue of the magazine. I enjoyed seeing all of the creativity that was present in the blocks!

This is called Lover’s Knot. It is a really interesting block on it’s own but I think that it would look great in a group of 4. I was able to piece the curve without much difficulty! Page 56 in the magazine.

This block is called Tea for Tulips on pate 35. It is all applique for the center and I was able to complete it without any big problems which is a big deal for me because applique is not my strong suit. It is really a cute block.

This block is called Tiny Dresden flags on page 38. I love the blog but my poor piecing applique on the tiny Dresden’s in the blue fields were not easy. The effect is very cute. My red lines wobbled a bit. I think I would do better if I tried this block again and It may be one I would paper piece to keep the lines sharp. This would make a wonderful quilt of Valor.

I want to wish all out there a wonderful Mother’s day! I have had a day of relaxing, sewing quilting and being treated to lunch. I  would like to honor all today for those who are Mom’s, who have had to be a Mom, grandmother and those to were influenced by you!
