I may be late to the party, but I am joining in anyway. 😀
Welcome , sweet friends and a beautiful day to you. What party am I talking about? Well, Melva's Little House Sampler Quilt Along. I was hooked as soon as Melva posted about it in her January 29th post, but am just now getting to join in. This quilt along is based on the life and stories of Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Are you a big Little House on the Prairie fan like me?

ReplyDeleteYou've definitely gotten a good start on that quilt along. Very pretty red leaf block.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty block Melisa. I'm so glad you are joining in, you aren't too late! I am behind on the last block but no worries here.
ReplyDeletePretty block - you know - I never got into the the Little House series. My dd did though. And during some of our travels, we visited Laura Ingalls House - bought the cookbook. Hmmm - maybe I should give it a shot...Blessings!
ReplyDeleteI believe a friend is always on time.
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely creative sewing block, Melisa.
Have a great weekend!
Beautiful block - I love the colors and patterns on the fabrics. I have used the maple leaf block in several small quilts and had fun with it. Enjoy the quilt along. Alicia
