Just a quick - and late post with the finished wonky log cabin flannel blanket for Project Linus.
I hope you like it - one or two more to go,

Wonky Log Cabin

Just a quick post with a picture of the wonky log cabin blocks. Not too shabby - though the camera operator could have done a nicer job... Hope to sew the blocks together, add a border and finish it up as a blanket by Saturday, so it can find a home as a Project Linus Blanket.
And today the Jelly roll sampler quilt along by Moose on the Porch quilt started - well, my 1st block has to wait until Sunday. Luckily they post a new block every 2 weeks, perfect time frame for me!
Oh yes, Bumble Beans received my house blocks in the mail - if you haven't made one yet, please go to her website and support her BASICS home gather with a 10 1/2 inch house block!

On the fitness front: No x-c skiing today, it's too warm and melting. I guess I have to go back to some fitness center workouts if it doesn't snow soon.

Have a great 1st week of March!

Design Wall Monday

Well, after an almost no-sew week, I managed to get some things done on Sunday. Last minute, but still in time for design wall:

First off is the (original) completed 4-patch top for "Quilts for Kids". My plan was to add a 2nd quilt to the package - and that was quickly cut & sewn up today: the 'Bear in the woods' 4-patch.
And I had to dive in a started project bag and pull out string and scrap blocks - made out of the flannel leftovers from the last Project Linus Blanket Party. These blocks may not be the most creative way, but it was quite a workload to get all these narrow strips sewn up.
Next step will be to make square blocks out of the rectangular strings and add a border.
For the 'wonky log cabin' blocks I guess I have to add some kind of sashing to even them out in size. I will have a look around to see what wonky options are floating around in blog land.
Please check out the other design walls by going to Judy's blog!

Have a great week,
Barb
