Friday Finishes

Yipee! The end of the week and I have some finishes to share.
*
These little constructions are my Happy Houses, now on their way to Lurline's. Once I was able to knuckled down they were quite simple to sew and most enjoyable.

Now I just wait and see who's cute houses I get in return. Then have fun playing with them and deciding on one bigger quilt or two wall hangings. Oh excitement!

Another finish after a long way from the start is my block one of Esther's 'Red Delicious'.


And here's block 2 all ironed on ready for blanket stitching. Maybe by the time the last block is released, I'll have caught up?

I'm pleased to report that I've probably done about 3/4's of the stitching on this now and hope to get block 3 ready over the weekend, fingers crossed.

Yes, another finish. These three strips are January, February and March of my Calendar Quilt Challenge. Click on the link on my side bar to read more and see how creative everyone else is.

While you're travelling around blogland, head on over and visit Blushing Rose. She has a super basket full of goodies for Mothers Day.

Very pretty happy houses. The swap will always be special to me as the blocks were the first blocks I had ever made and gave me so much grief in the making. I too am excited about receiving some ones back in return. A special wall hanging, I think. xxx

I like them all but my favorite is the last one. Looks like little red or pink flowers. So very, very cute.
