Always cool!

How neat it was this morning to see two of my blocks from Barbara Brackman’s Dixie Diary Block-of-the-Month showcased at Barbara’s Civil War Quilts blog!

She chose one of my blocks the last time she did an update of that BOM program …

Dixie Diary BOM – Block 4

Here’s block #4 for Barbara Brackman’s Dixie Diary Block-Of-The-Month.

Grandmother’s Choice BOW – Week 32

This week’s block was a rather plain block … Barbara calls it Mr. Roosevelt’s Necktie

… and unfortunately I did absolutely nothing to spruce it up at all!  (boo)  The photo of the block that Barbara used had some fussy cutting, but I didn’t really want to mess around with that.  The angles involved just would have made that a nightmare.  I’ll blame it on the dull headache that I had, maybe that’s why I just didn’t feel like doing math, fussy cutting, etc.

So my version of this block is very, very plain.  The cheddar fabric does have a very, very light stripe – but it really doesn’t show up too well.
