new block





I've been busy the last week or so. I started going to the Y for aqua therapy for arthritis and it seems to be making me a little more limber. I'm amazed that even my hands seem to be doing better!


As for my quilting I've been working on a new block design...it took a bit of figuring but it came out the way I hoped. I have a throw top done. I'll probably hand quilt it so it will go in the pile for later but I am pleased with the way it turned out. I'd like to try it in some different colors next time now that I have the bugs worked out. I also have another block pattern floating around in my head...I love the math of block designs.....must be the math teacher in me surfacing again!


I don't enter many giveaways but I thought I would mention one that I did. GENE is celebrating his 250th blog entry...that is quite an accomplishment...so I figured I'd pass it on. His blog is always interesting to read.

Did you recognize the fabric on one of the tea towels I made? Shown on my blog.
Nice block. Am I correct that you designed it yourself?

I got the inspiration from a book about math and quilts....I had to figure out the dimensions and cutting sizes as the book didn't give the directions
