Giveaway now closed.
I finished my Oso top this week. It was my first Schnibbles quilt and I am quite happy with how it turned out.
In the instructions there is quite a bit of trimming to size during the construction of each block. For my next Schnibbles I am going to try to constuct the blocks to size removing the trimming steps which I found became quite time consuming. I have a pattern and fabric chosen already. :)
This is my second block for Blogger Girl's Block of the Month. My variation!!! I didn't get the fabrics in quite the right places! Ooopps!!! There may be a bit of operating on this block in the near future!
Block seven, William and Harry Clendenen's block for the Chester Criswell Quilt is completed.
Lastly, some hand piecing with my delectable mountain blocks. Eight completed, so I am a week ahead! :)
I will be making more today.
It has been a little while since I had a giveaway, so, in celebration of having 200 followers, making over 200 posts and, just because it is a lovely, sunny day here I have a book to give away.
Thank you to everyone who has become a follower, everyone who leaves a comment, or even if you just "lurk". :)
No hoops to jump through, just leave a comment and I will choose a winner randomly in a few days. Please make sure I have a way to contact you by adding an email address if you are an anonymous commenter.

Have a great stitching week everyone. :)
It's so nice to see others working on various projects, too! Your schnibbles turned out beautifully. Almost looks native american to my eyes.
ReplyDeleteI like your block of the month just as it is. Love that fabric with the white dots.
Your applique is perfection...and hand piecing, too! Love that some of your delectable mountains are high contrast and others are not.
Thanks for the opportunity to win this fun looking book. Congrats on the 200 followers and posts.
We had a sunny day here, too. I sat outside to drink my tea this afternoon even though it was pretty chilly. I have much more energy on sunny days.
Congrats on 200. Love the appliqué block, it's lovely.

ReplyDeleteI'm taking this class on Craftsy and would love the book!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I like your block just like it is,
I just love those handpieces blocks! The ones with subtle contrast I like so much but always chicken out of making myself. Your schnibble looks great too! Congratulations on both of your 200's :0)
ReplyDeleteYour work is lovely as usual. Where do you find the time?! Love the red palm branch too.
ReplyDeleteYou are such a busy girl, yet always seem on track, Miriam. Beautiful work!

The fabric combo in the bloggers block is really pretty. The mountains blocks look like fun, they are coming along nicely. It is fun to have a few things going at once. I enjoy following your blog but I am bit of a lurker on the blogs I follow.

Love how your Oso quilt turned out. It is on my to do list and I agree with you about the trimming on the Schnibbles. It makes them accurate but is so time consuming!
ReplyDeleteHello - I just found your blog.and have been trolling through it - I love that you work on a variety of projects, I wonder what that delectale mountains is going to look like when done! Nice to hand piece - so accurate aand yet so soft.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to returning.
Thanks for the chance to win that gorgeous looking book.
