Lisa Bongean's tenth anniversary quilt along!

 Happy Wednesday!!  Off work today...laundry, vacuuming, dusting, cooking, cleaning...those are the words of the day. Except...for prepping this block! This is Lisa Bongean's block, of Primitive Gatherings; the first block in her quilt along.  She is celebrating the tenth anniversary of being in business, so she is doing a free quilt along to celebrate.  Her store also sells fabric and wools if you want to go that route.  I am using scraps.
So here is the block...it has tiny pieces!!  Those are normal size scissors next to it.  The block is on an 8 inch background, so I imagine it will be 6 inches finished.  Pretty tiny, huh??

You can see Lisa's post and get the free pattern HERE.


Hope all you have a great day!!

Are you using cotton? I love this little block - thanks for posting

Beautiful! How did you get this made so quickly?
I saved the pattern and have no idea when it will get made. I think I will be using wool. I have haunted the local thrift stores and felted quite a supply of the stuff. : )

I just saw that. I'm going to go print it. Yours look great. Bright and cheerful.

You did a quick job of prepping that block. I printed out the pattern earlier today.

Raewyn said...

Lovely!! You are quick off the mark, I've printed off mine..but got no further.

Jill said...

Pretty block. Yes, those are tiny pieces. I very much like your choice of scraps.

That came out really nicely, are you doing raw edge?
I was going with wool, but noticed how small the pieces are when I printed it out, so thinking I need to use my thicker wools.

I looked at it and thought it would be too hard for me! I like Terry's idea of embroidery! Great job!

I printed my copy off today. I can't believe you already have yours all prepped and ready to sew! Very pretty!

Cathy said...

Your block is beautiful. I also downloaded the pattern. Are you doing needle turn or buttonhole applique. Hugs
