CCC Blocks #30 & 31 Finished!

What an amazing quilting journey since Sept. 2012 when I began the Chester County Criswel Quilt Blocks. Here are the last two blocks that I recently finished. #31 laurels photo is not sharp. I may have to re-take. I did some fussy cutting and it turned out OK. #30 is from an angle just for fun! These are in progress to finish off this beautiful quilt. Once finished I will hand quilt it. YAY!

Flowers in bloom!



Magnolia bloom: Notice the holes and tears and brown jagged marks? That is hail damage on leaves. In addition to thrashing the leaves, you can even see how big some of the hail was with holes clear through the leaves.

May was a happy blur!

May in pictures! It was a blur - lots of time on the road, some beautiful sites at Cleveland Art Museum, Indianapolis, St Louis & Ithaca... but most of all celebrations of life, health, and time with family! (Photos courtesy of my wonderful mother - DJ!)
