I spent much of today with back to school preparations. How can it be that time already? I have a little sewing progress to share.
This 6 inch block was really tricky. Afterwards I told myself "Just because cutting instructions are given for a 6 inch square doesn't mean you have to make it." I do really like it though :0)
2 more - a little less complicated ones.
My top border for my Bird of Paradise quilt is slowly growing. I can't decide how symmetrical I want it to be - my daughter called this "quilters block" :0) I don't think I'm that stuck - I just need to find enough time to sit down and figure it out. Maybe tonight...
Happy Quilting!!

such darling blocks and that border is beautiful. You do lovely work!
Gorgeous blocks! I can't even imagine how tiny those HSTs were to make a 6" block. Fabulous border.
Your latest 6" block has a gazillion tiny pieces. You did a fantastic job. "Quilter's Block"...great phrase. Your daughter is spot on!
Those 6 inch blocks are beautiful - more so for being so small! Good luck with the border - hope your 'blockage' clears soon ;) I do love the background fabric you have on this quilt - such a nice vintage look.
that is a lot of triangles in those 6" blocks
your vine is really pretty so far.
where did summer go? it was just 4th of July!
good luck to all your kids returning to school.
Wow, I can't believe that is a 6" block - amazing piecing and color placement.
Your BOP border is looking lovely! I just love seeing your updates on that quilt.
That's a lot of pieces for a 6" block! I love a good challenge though and it looks like you do to.
Your applique border is gorgeous!
Back to school prep is so important! Enjoy those times :-)
Love your little blocks, that is a lot of tiny seams!! Well done.
Love the appliqué...just lovely!
Love that applique border!
I am chuckling over "quilter's block". You have diagnosed my perpetual problem! Is there a cure, or must I simply start a new project? I just discovered your blog--you have so many interesting projects--all wonderful!
Gorgeous little blocks. There is something about those tiny pieces that issue a challenge....so fiddly but worth go the results. Your appliqué border is beautiful.
