My friend Regina is looking for a place to order the 2010 calendar called “Piecemakers 2010″ most of the internet sites that she has looked at says it is sold out. If anyone knows where she can purchase it where it is still being sold will you let me know please and I will pass the information on to her.
I am so pleased that I am making progress on this quilt. I sure will be glad to get this quilt done after working on it so long! Here are more photos:
Row K # 4 & 5
Row K # 5 & 6
On the first photo the burgundy color block was featured on the last blog post, I forgot when I took the photo. I did 3 blocks between yesterday evening and today.
Last night I also got finished with the 2nd of the “Baltimore Bliss” blocks and got it pressed and trimmed today. I don’t have another one of those blocks prepped so I think I will work on that this evening before I do a block or two of the “Insanity” quilting. I don’t see anything on tv this evening that I feel like watching – maybe I will find an old show to put on.
2nd block for the "Baltimore Bliss" quilt
We are starting to get some fall weather here – it has only been in the 50’s for the last couple of days. It came so quickly it seems. Very rainy the last couple of days also. Not hard rain, just off and on all day with no sun coming through. At least it does sound like we will have sunny weather at the end of the week for the weekend. Fall weather always wants me to start baking more – making bread and other baked goods. I really need to try to control myself! Something about baking makes me eat more – and hubby too. LOL could it be those great smells coming out of the kitchen gets you drooling and making you think you are hungrier than you think and then you over stuff!
I need to start picking out colors of paint for my kitchen and bathroom. I told myself when I got done with the sewing room and back from travel I would do that painting and it is time to follow through with it. I would like to have both rooms done by time the holidays come around. My kitchen hasn’t been done in I really do not know how long — years and years!

That quilt is going to be gorgeous when you are done!! I know what you mean about the colder weather and wanting to bake. I do it too! Definite self control is needed!

Oh Karen, I’m really loving your Baltimore Bliss blocks. I love the fabrics you are using.

thanks all – the fabric for the Baltimore Bliss is all from scraps so far – some are about fat quarter size and some are bigger and some are smaller – I will have to keep pulling from the scrap pile to get this one done and try to carry some of the colors throughout all of the blocks.
Thanks Regina – you need to get busy on your Dear Jane too! I would love to see what you have done I haven’t seen it for awhile.
I bet I might give in a do a little baking tomorrow – rainy day once again!
