Pom Pom and other things

 Edit
I stuffed up!  Wrong photo.  I used block 7 photo instead of block 8 and have now changed it.

 
We are now up to block 8 of the Pom Pom Tree BOM.  So, if you have been collecting these blocks, then the latest one is now available.

They are a digital download, at the price of $4.95.  There is a little problem with Pay Pal, where you get a message saying your payment has failed, but it has not actually failed at all.  You should still get the email with the link to download the pattern.  If you do not get the link, please let me know and I will fix it.

When you come to the end of a long term project do you have something in the wings......something you have thought about doing for a while, or something that needs attention?

I am up to the end of the Little Sisters.  On the weekend I washed it and crossed my fingers and toes that it all came out out ok (and it did) and now I am up to doing the hanging sleeve, label etc

 I just love the back of this quilt!  It looks like a "wholecloth" and makes me think that I might make one of these one day.........

Doing the hanging sleeves and labels are not my favourite jobs, but you have to do it.  I have a new way to do the labels, which I will show next time (I have to do it yet!)

 This is the last "sneak peek" until it gets posted away

The "NEW" project is the Basket Galore blocks and the Rose Garden blocks I made last year.  They are all going in the one quilt. These block pattens are still available for $2.50 each.

 Yesterday I started to trim down the blocks to 8 1/2" and now I have to worry about the sashing and setting.  I have a few ideas in my mind, and some fabrics I really want to use.  I expect it will all work out in time.
