What's This Decision: Blocks 21-24

Sooooo I kind of just realized that I haven't finished posting my finished wacky quilt blocks. I've hardly been at my sewing machine this summer at all, except for a request here or there. Something about the lack of portability of a heavy sewing machine onto one's porch probably has something to do with it, as well as the discomfort of a steaming hot iron on hot days. I've finished some crocheted bits which I'll show you soon--that and finishing my paper-piecing project has taken up much of my time. Anyhoodle, here are the next four blocks. I don't even know if I remember what I was thinking as I put these together.

The quintessential after school snack--milk and cookies at the kitchen table. I used to love those moments when we would all come home from school to our waiting mother, to have a quick snack and then start homework. It's still my favorite time of day, that late afternoon four o'clockish time.

Ermm....I don't really need to explain this one...

This one is a basket of strawberries with a pretty gingham cloth to keep the bees off during your walk home from berry pickin'.

Cherry pie :) Even though the pink says cupcake. I guess they could be cherry cupcakes. I love the look of delight on the woman's face. That's how I'd feel if someone gave me a cupcake right now.

Hmmm. I guess I do remember what I was thinking...

I've got a few more blocks, and a few crocheted projects, and hopefully by the end of the weekend a few bags, to share. So why do I feel like I haven't done anything? Ta for now.

  3. I'm the opposite... I've sewn more than usual this summer. Probably has something to do with the fact that it's usually over 90 F outside but inside about 80. I LOVE the strawberry basket block! I want a whole quilt made with those fabrics.
