Block Time

With only a couple of weeks left before the arrival of the baby, I am trying to get all of my May blocks done as early as possible.  I'm still whittling away at the April Skill Builder hexie blocks.  I forgot how long it takes to hand sew things.  The first one is coming along though a little at a time.

I finished the Sisters Modern BOM blocks for May: Aunt Eliza's Star.  As my son would say, they were easy peazy lemon squeezy.

I also finished the 3 blocks for do.Good Stitches.  It actually takes 4 to complete an entire Crazy Star block, but we're leaving them unfinished for Erica to mix and match them together.  The finished block is 20 inches, so they're pretty big.  We were to use red, yellow and orange scraps with low volume prints as background.  Here's a lovely explanation of low volume prints if you're curious (go here).
