apple brown betty and her baskets


Meet my new friends!


"apple brown betty" SAL
Block Size: 3 1/2" unfinished

Cheri has started her new SAL
 on this past Monday and
I jumped right in :D

As adding the triangles yesterday,
almost every single point of 
the star blocks got eaten up :(
But I'm still enjoying this lovely SAL.

And today's part is even more fun-
it's my favorite = making bunch of HSTs!!


"Blessing Baskets"
Block #3
SAL at TQC
Block Size: 4 1/2" unfinished

Not only playing with "apple betty brown" 
is such fun, Temecula Quilt Co. has
 also started their SAL to celebrate 
their 5th anniversary.

My kit has just arrived earlier this week
and started making the basket blocks.
Sheryl has already posted the 2nd block today.

Will be busy between these two girls
for awhile :)))

Xoxo,

  2. Just a tip that might work for you next time. l always sew from the side where l can see the point seams. If they look like being off just a bit, l can make a small adjustment as l sew along, and make sure the points are near perfect!! Hope this helps.

  11. I love your project and they look perfect to me. I can't tell you how many times my points haven't been quite points, but I think that is a part of quilting.
