Blocks And Hexi's Done

This month has been my first month in Christmas Quilting Block Swaps Australia and my partner was Lorraine from here in New Zealand.  She asked for Ohio Star in traditional Christmas colours.  

For the October block over at Quilting Block Swap Australia I had Janeene and she asked for any star block and liked reds, purple and neutrals.  I made her this Friendship Star.

Then for Our Craft Forums 2012 Monthly Sampler Block Experience I made this Broken Sugar Bowl Block.  I was lucky as I just had enough grey material to make it.  Now to sew it altogether.

Finally the lastest hexi's from the Hexagon Swap over at the CraftLovers Online Forum.

This one I am sending to Candlepatche.  She has asked for a mixture of greens, browns and pinks.

I am sending this one to Norma. She has asked for any shade of blue with a white centre.

Last month I received this hexi from LynB to go with my collection.

September Block Already Completed!!

Nice and fast this month as it is my favorite block.

This month for the 2012 Monthly Sampler Block Experience the block I chose was one of two we could make.  Love making the Pinwheel block, so obviously completed it.

One Xmas Item A Month, OASS & Some Blocks

Finally finish my items.  I started them a few weeks ago then lost my mojo and put them aside, but today they are finished.  This time I made 3 Charming ornaments and found the pattern here at A Spoonful Of Sugar.  Though they took me a while to finish they are nice and easy to make.

(Trying to take the picture was a bit hard as every time I thought I had it right a breeze came up!!!!)

I have also made my item for my partner for the OASS swap.  I am sending to Peta over at Just Crafting My Day Away.  For her a made this basket.  I had made this pattern before in another swap so thought to do it again.  If you would like to make one just head over to Geta's Quilting Studio. Will be posting away tomorrow.

Then over at Our Craft Forum I am participating in the 2012 Monthly Block Sampler Experience and we got sent our first block at the start of the month.  This month  it was the Baby Bud Block chosen by Jeanette and here is my one finished

Baby Bud Block

And finally, this month for the Australian Block Swap I sent to Cate and one of the blocks she requested was Square in square. Her colours were green, orange and turquoise so a made her this one.  Hope she likes it.
