RSC Saturday in purple......

So happy I get to join in this week. I managed to carve out a little sewing time and played with some purple during the week. 10 minutes here and there can really get things done.

A house got built....

Some Birds in the Air blocks flew out of the sewing room

My 1857 album quilt just happens to be in purples so I am including the progress on those blocks as well. The patterns are free over at sentimental stitches.com for these.


Head on over to the RSC Challenge on Saturday morning for the link up. I'll link up when I get home from an overnight girl scout slumber party at the drive in. Wish me luck, I'm going to need it. That kicks off the kids school vacation (with Friday being their first day of vacation).

A ten minute house has to be a record! It's cute, too. The geese look good in flight. Keep up the good work!

House blocks have become one of my favorite blocks. But I love your Birds in the Air blocks. Every time I see them I think I want a Birds in the Air Quilt. Keep inspiring me with your blocks so maybe one day I will make them for me.

The birds in air are marvelous and the applique is enticing. Even the backdrop for your blocks is beautiful.

Carving out sewing time is pretty hard for me. I can't wait for a retreat I will attend at the end of next month for dedicated sewing time for 2 full days.
