RSC - time to wrap things up!

 

Always nice when your quilts are appreciated! Bear likes to make a pile and pop a pillow on top to get some doggie ZZZ's.  The pillow says, 'Reserved for the Dog'. He is a wee bit spoiled!

I had planned to make more of these blocks this week, but it didn't happen. I'm hoping to remedy that today. Greg took Emily to horses so I need to pop into the sewing room and cut out my parts so they are ready to sew. I want to add a brown and a black 16 pach so there are 12 blocks to make a nice size quilt. It should measure 48x64 with a 3x4 setting. The goal in November is to get the blocks finished, assembled and quilted and bound. 


Linking up with the RSC and One Monthly Goal for November.

My daughter is all recovered from her cold with just a little cough still. She did manage to share a bit of her bug with us as the other 3 in the house have been having sore throats this week - the boy first but he is all better, then hubby who is feeling better today. Mine is a little worse today but not bad with a bit of a cough.  Hubby took Emily to horses today as he is feeling bad since he mixed up my birthday =) He thought it is tomorrow, but it was yesterday! He normally is spot on remembering things, so I am finding it amusing he messed up the dates! Just another day as far as I am concerned.... but my oldest sibling was happy to welcome me into the 50 range with the rest of them!

Your star quilt is getting so close. Glad you had a rest from horses today to feel better and sew. A change of pace is always nice.

great star quilt - don't you hate it when colds get shared and you know all being in the same house it will hop from one to the next and pretty much nothing you can do about it.

Happy Birthday, Deb!
Your star quilt will be beautiful, great plans for sewing those blocks today.
Have fun and I hope you feel better soon.

Happy Birthday, whichever day you celebrate! Hope you get a yummy meal that you don't have to cook! The stars are looking great. I'm trying to decide if I want to bind my Full Stop in the background color like you did the quilt in your header photo. I like the look of that, but have never done it.

Happy Belated Birthday! Your stars will be such a striking quilt! Hope you’re all feeling better soon!

Happy Birthday, and pleased that your household is starting to feel better again. I do hope you have some sort of celebration to mark your special day? Perhaps a coffee and cake date, with whoever you would like to invite?

What a fun block to showcase the different RSC colors. The blocks combine to make a happy quilt.
