Lori great folk art indeed. The 12 Days looks good - quite a few to come though! Love the piper with his swanky tie!

So many goodies to share. I like the green basket on the Cherry Tree block. I printed out block 21 today. Not too many more to go.

I have block 5 of the Noah quilt ready to applique. I don't know what I am waiting for to work on it.

Loris said...

<3 that cherry block!! Seems very folky, and great urn fabric.

Love your block - colors are captivating.

Congratulations, Hannah!!!

Look at that beautiful smile! I love celebrating those milestones! And the cherry tree is so great! I think that green and red will always be the very best color combination. The idea of having hand work around to do is something I did this rainy spring. I was sad when my pieces were all done! Going to start a wool hydrangea piece next week. Have a good weekend Lori! xo Pam in Chico
