Well, I started out with Flowering Snowballs because Molly Flanders Makerie was having a Quilt Along.
I've been sloooowly quilting along making my Flowering Snowballs out of my cherry pie themed fabrics and different cherry colored reds/pinks.
I want to make a large bed-sized quilt.
These are the latest 13 blocks I've made and I think I now have 32 of them.
Unfortunately I'm easily distracted so it takes me awhile to finish quilts (or enough blocks to make a quilt) and I have lots of UFOs.
Latest distraction? I've been meaning to try some large 15 inch Road to Lampasas blocks in 30s fabrics.
Here's my trial blocks. I like them. So now I'll be making more whenever the urge strikes.
And I used up some more 4 patches to make more Bear Foot blocks. I've been using up swapped four patches but ran out of them (but am expecting another swap batch very soon) after I made that block with deep purple HSTs so whipped up a few of my own from 2.5 inch scraps.
I need to count. I may have enough Bear Foot blocks for a large quilt.
What have you been working on?

Your flowering snowball blocks are looking great. I saw that quilt along and wanted to do it (even bought some templates) but got distracted with a different top and never got around to it. Some day!
You sew like I do. A bit here and bit there! :)
I am loving what is going on on your wall!
I don't think of it as distraction, but inspiration! All of your blocks are wonderful.... so bright and cheery.
Great 1930s fabrics. Looks like a fun quilt.
Lots of wonderful variety on your design wall!
I have the flowering snow ball on my list. Love your scrappy version!
Love your cherry blocks a lot . I mad in love with red shades and they are just the right think for me, I think they are very beautiful same as the purple Bear Foot .
