Our June Colors~


In June we were both inspired by flowers!


Tammy, by her beautiful over-flowing roses..


Her block is Georgetown Circles
with
Bright Pink, Clover, and Chartreuse


And my inspiration were the late tulips
blooming in Idaho.


I decided to make the June block,
Teach,
since Tammy and I both do that!
My colors were:
Tangerine, Leprechaun,
and
Lipstick 







 Flowers among the leaves.....

May's Little Adventure~



We remained on schedule in May as well.


I was in a water mode and wanted to do a block in all water colors,
but it was too blah, so 
I tried to spice it up with a splash of spring color, pink!

For the block I use components from two of my favorite
with
Water
Breakers
Bright Pink

(That is ice breaking up in the background)


Tammy chose to make a
Morning Star
using 
Medium Pink
Crocus
Wasabi


Five months down, seven to go.....

Color Adventure - Our April Blocks Together~

I am a little behind on posting,
but here are our April blocks together.

Tammy created a block to represent 
a cross for Easter 
using royal, mulberry and citrus.  

Her block is called Blackford's Beauty.


Her husband thought it looked like a 
stained-glass window.

Mine is from the Sugar Snow quilt.

Again, we have similarities!

I am still loving this adventure.....

July's LYOF Goal~



Last winter I made a test basket out of scraps.
I took parts I liked from one basket, ideas from another
and came up with one the size/shape
I was looking for.

The intent was to make more once I had the dimensions,
but you know how that goes...

In July my goal is to get one done for a biking family we know
with a new little one
on the way.....

I will be linking up with 
the ever wonderful


 A Lovely Year of Finishes
