Earlier this year Mary of Molly Flanders Makerie hosted a Flowering Snowball QAL.
Some people finished their quilt...I secretly sewed along but only completed 30 - 10 inch blocks.
I wanted a BIG quilt.
I wanted to use some more of my cherry fabrics since I didn't use them all in my Japanese x and + quilt.
So, long story short...this weekend I got a hankering to work on my Flowering Snowballs and made 14 more blocks.
I think it takes longer for me to cut pieces for the blocks than to actually make them.
For some reason I'm hungry for some cherry pie.
And there's not a Flowering Snowballs chance in heck that I'll have this completed any time soon. If I make a quilt 80x90 that means I'm not quite at the halfway mark with blocks. That's the pits!
. . . but the way these blocks look? That's the cherries.
ReplyDeleteSo aim your finish for cherry season 2015 (or 2016) ... A few blocks here, a few blocks there . . .
ReplyDeleteYou are going great guns on those. So definitely cherries.
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt. It even calls me to make it...except for that square pit right in the middle of each block...then I think I will just live vicariously through you...so take your time!
ReplyDeleteAnd I thought I was the only one obsessed with cherries! Love all those fabrics!
ReplyDeleteYou are so prolific a quilter--amazing! Love those blocks--14 in one day! Phew girl!! Hugs, Juierose
ReplyDeleteDefinitely cherries!!
ReplyDeleteYou seem to always get so much done. I wanted to make this quilt too, but haven't even started. I planned on using some fabric I found at my mom's house, hopefully when my kids go thru my things they will find a flowering snowball quilt and not some fabric folded on a shelf! LOL
ReplyDeleteThis is so fun.:) Love the cherry theme and those bright pops of red and hot sizzling pinks!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!!! I just LOVE your fabrics!!!
