AUGUST SEPTEMBER NEARLY INSANE BLOCKS ARE DONE

I spent a day working on the months 4 NEARLY INSANE BLOCKS. Yes, these blocks only measure 6.5". Some have so many tiny pieces.....
Our group is on a mission. They want us to have these quilts completed by mid 2016 for our quilt show.... It is good inspiration having others do the same quilt.
Here are my blocks...
No. 29

No.  44
I had some trouble with this one because I don't like "Y" seams so I decided to appliqué the stars on to the background


No..  61


No.  76

Have a look at the page HONOUR QUILT 2014 by clicking on the tab at the top of this page. It tells you about the people that Maree has chosen to do a block for that were in the war.

JULY & AUGUST SWAPS

 I have just received these from Shannon. Also, with a cute little quick unpick. It is a seam-fix brand and it has a rubber end. She says that after you cut the thread you rub them away with the end..
I'll give it a try....
She also sent me 2 charms squares to match... Very nice.


Then for this months swap I am putting these blocks in the mail for Rose...
