The light's out in the sewing room, but it was lots of fun while it lasted. I didn't get the last round of borders on the large quilt, but alot of progress was made. Kim snagged a finish - check out the Irish Chain!
The pic is of my 'leader and ender' accomplishment for the weekend. Leaders-enders are like free money!
I finally caught up on all the 25 patch blocks Jan and I have been exchanging. I would sew Jan's, but stack mine up for later. Later finally arrived!
The little star was the last of my set of 50. The pieces had been lost for awhile (resurfaced when I straighten the sewing table awhile back).
The large pinwheel blocks were inspired by a quilt posted by Sharon at Indigo Threads (May 31, 2009). I just love the look of the large pinwheels set block-to-block.
The large HST blocks are another cut stack sitting on the sewing table for leader-ender. This will be set block-to-block on point (sample quilt at Little Quilts). The large block size really shows off the wonderful repro fabrics. We're so lucky to have so many great repro lines!
I'm traveling this week and have carved out some time on Thursday to visit the Lancaster Quilt Museum, Zook's and Sauder's. Don't have alot of luggage space, but that hasn't stopped me in the past!

I will have to do that leader and endere thing....you are right...it is a free ride.
Me too. Only problem is finding time to cut... Love those blocks, so colourful!
Those little blocks are so cute. What a great collection. l have used the leader/ender sewing method, and love that you get STUFF sewn without sewing!!! l think there might be some multi colored pinwheels in my not to distant future. Thanks for sharing the photo and the inspiration..
I LOVE every one of those blocks! Those big pinwheels are awesome!
On Thursday you'll be hitting the beginning of Sauder's big sale. You'll get great buys! Kathie L in Allentown
I want some of that "free money"! I don't do leaders and enders but should.
Fantastic fun projects!!!!
Impressive array of completed blocks!
Found your blog this morning through Blackbird Designs, very glad I did. I was very inspired as I looked at your pictures. I've always wanted to do a hexagon quilt and yours is great. I enjoyed my visit today and plan on returning soon.
