Blog BOM

As you can see from my sidebar I am making several BOM this year. If you are interested in any of these you can click on the button on the sidebar.

I finished the "so cute" little basket block from Anne Sutton. The background is a pale pink. It is hard to tell from the picture. Sorry it is not a very good picture. The buttons have not been sewn on because I am not sure if I will put those on or some other ones. This quilt is a combination of the calendar quilt and the quilt from Ellie's site. I will be adding the strips to the side of the embroidered block.

This block is Aunt Millie's garden. I just thought I would show you I have some petals sewn on.

With Passion, Carrie P.

  3. CUTE snowman!!! I clicked on the pictures because the buttons look familiar. I used the same ones on the SSCS pinwheel tote I made my partner. They're so pretty.

  6. Love your take on the Tisket Tasket BOM. I started it this weekend in wool but am thinking I should do regular applique too now that I see all the other pretty ones!

  7. Your fabric selections are always right on. The snowman in the basket looks so great...It makes me want to commit to the fabrics I have in mind. Great idea for the calendar quilt...to combine.

  10. My goodness, you've been busy!

    The Bunny Hill block is so very cute! I love the paisley basket fabric. Did you use felt for the snowman body?

    The Aunt Millie's looks like it is going to be lovely. I can't wait to see it when it's done. :)

  13. Love that quilt block! I signed up for her newsletter and though I'm not quite ready to try an applique of that complexity, I sure do enjoy the inspiration!

    I bought 2 little patterns made just to use charm packs. One is a wee wall quilt called Grandma's Attic and the other is the cutest pattern ever called Chubby Chicks ... a very simple applique that is probably more my level. I hope to start work on it soon.

    Smiles,

  14. Love your Basket block Carrie. That is going to be a wonderful quilt. Very clever combining the two calender quilts.

    Looks like I will have to wait a bit for my Aunt Millie Garden book. They are out of stock. Maybe your beautiful blocks have increased sales of the book. :)
