SWOONING...

I saw this pattern in my magazine actually.  And I have seen it all over the internet. I love it.  I love everyone doing the block together.  I love how everyone's looks.  I had to join in.  I used my own pattern though.  My blocks are 30 inches each.  Big, humongous blocks.  One of my teachers had told me that anything more than 14 inches really isn't a good idea.  Ohhh, contrare.  Love the swoonage!

Craftsy Block of the Month

I went to a Stash Reduction sale last week.  It was an amazing sale.  I bought some really nice stuff at a fraction of the cost it would be to buy it new.  Even bought this nice little hexagon ruler for a buck.  How can you go wrong? One of the fat quarters I bought was this "bones" fabric.  I had to make it for my dog as soon as I got home.  Does she look chic in it or what? My kids went crazy over her when they got home from school.
I am in the Craftsy Block of the Month class with Amy Gibson. The class is free.  I am having a lot of fun with it.  I love these quilt alongs. 

Above and below are January's block of the month (BOM).

 These are February's BOM- half square triangles.  Had a blast with these.
I will show you March when I am done with them. They are  a lot of fun to do as well.
