swap from Kerry

Kerry was my swap partner for this month and after googling Blankets of Love this is the block she sent me. It is 18" square and will make a blanket on its own. I will finish it and when I send it off I will give all credit to Kerry so thank you so much.

This is the memory square that can be made to accompany the bigger quilts. I am in awe of your generosity Kerry... thank you.

May blocks




I've made two blocks this month; one for my partner Julie and a second for Kelly who's collecting blocks for a quilt to raffle in aid of drought relief. Julie asked for a stashbuster block 2; I found this quite challenging but I think I've got it right...





Kelly's asked for Ohio Stars; this is one of my favourite blocks..
