Bigger Pumpkin BOM Block

Sorry about the picture....still learning. Or more appropriately-not learning, because I keep making the same mistakes!

September BOM

Two pumpkin blocks this month. AND they are much cuter in person. I spent a whole bunch of time trying to crop and adjust the color of the pictures so they would appear more accurate, but I am obviously doing something wrong because I can't get those pictures to download.

No sewing this week.

I picked up my September BOM last week and got started on it, but then I HAD to set it aside to get some bottling done. This week I have worked on tomatoes, peaches, & raspberry jelly. YUM!!! Today was the first meeting of my new Quilt Guild. After the meeting I came home and put the canning stuff away and finished my BOM. Maybe I can sew a little bit tomorrow, too! However, tomorrow and Saturday I will be attending Time Out for Women. If you haven't ever attended-I highly recommend it.

August BOM

Once again I am having technical difficulties, because I don't know what I'm doing! I tried to rotate this picture, but couldn't get it to work. Sorry. Anyway, super easy block. Was finished in a couple hours! Yea!!! Now I'm caught up from leaving the country. By the way, the July and August blocks were completed on Aug. 28th leaving me with 3 days to spare!!!

And....July BOM

Not the best picture ever, but this block took a while. The "berries" are extra small yo-yo's. I think they're about 3/4". I'm not sure how long it took to make them, but I was focused (or the more appropriate word could be "possessed", and made all 50 of them one evening. Then I spent the next morning-about 4 hours-sewing them on. In the end I think I only used 48 of the berries. This block looks really cute, trust me!

This is June House #2

It's never too late!

Finally, they're here....June BOM has two house blocks. This is House #1
