Summer Plans!

Linda gave me a bunch of fabric to make some quilts for Project Linus.  I haven't had as much time as I've wanted to sew, but I will have a lot of time this summer to finish the nine blankets I got the material for!
 


 I did get to finish one!  It is a rag quilt.  I'm making three others just like it.  I love this quilt because it's cute and so easy to make!



 This is a quilt my mom started over 30 years ago.  This summer I plan to quilt it and put binding on it!  I started this past weekend with two of the block.
 


Another thing I'm working on this year is a block of the month from my favorite quilt store, Bernina.  Each month we get material and directions to make another block.  


 I bought this fabric a while ago, but haven't worked on this project in a while.  This one you won't see until I enter it into the North Carolina State Fair in October! 


 My quilting group is doing challenges again!  Hurray!  This time we're going to do a summer themed project.  I want to do a beach scene.  I have some beach things to paper piece and applique!  We'll see how this turns out.
