It's Fri-Yay!

 I did go down for Scrap Day. 

Eddie was out of town.

The street that we liked to park on is fenced off.

The city is taking that street and making a Park.

The bridge will be taken down and just a 

Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge will be built

They turned the Parking direction in the 

 Powered by Fabric lot. 

Only one Exit from the Parking lot now.

I was glad that I showed up early! 

There's a big Tree that is being removed.

Sad for that!

And the call it Progress...?

Anyway!

Here are the Blocks I made while there.

I started at the Back of the book this time.

Wreath

Warm Hat

Vintage Pinwheel

After making the fiddly Wreath Block I chose two less tiny parts blocks to make.

I see now that I'm home that I used a different background with these three blocks. oops!

I'm using my scraps from the Christmas in July SAL I did last year with Fat Quarter Shop.

Had to see how many I've made for my Vintage Christmas Quilt.

11 of 35 Total 6.5" blocks to make.

I missed the Christmas Sew Day in April yesterday.

No Christmas in June Day this next month...

More to come between now and Christmas in July!

Next Blocks are either a Gingerbread House or a Vintage Ornament"

Gotta fill in the blank spots and have this one done for Christmas this year, lol.

Monday- after Retreat

Our Walla Walla Valley Quilt Guild had a Retreat

in Lewiston Idaho last week.

I couldn't get there until Thursday night.

It was Shelly's 1st Retreat.

The Lodge was quiet and we Sewed and Sewed!

The Food was good and we ate way too much.

This is the end of my Vacation time after our week in California.

I had cut out a couple of Blocks for the Vintage Christmas to sew up at Retreat.

Using up the leftover Lalyer cake from the FQS Christmas SAL last year.

Christmas Star, City Sidewalks, Glimmer & Cozy Star Blocks.

Bonus HSTs turned into tiny Hourglass units.

HSTs would be way to small.

I was tired of tiny block parts so I got out my RBD Block Challenge book

This is the last Block posted.

"Woven Together"

I will make this one again.

Not enough contrast on the light side.

The One Sister Design Class project got some time at the Retreat on the last day.

She said the blocks reminded her of the old cameras that looked like this.

I finished a few more stars.

Gotta cut more 1 3/4" strips of the Neutrals and 1 1/2" of the colors.

My "Easter Joy" Tulips were blooming for Easter.

No Mission Reunion is planned, so we get to stay home for General Conference.

Today was UFO Day, but I've burned out and needed a rest day.

I think it's Spring Break in Tri-Cities. 

Usually it's Grandma Quilt Camp, but that hasn't been scheduled yet.
 

Happy Fri-Yay! QUILT FESTIVAL TIME!

I got to help pin Quilts together with sleeves between to go over the Poles.

It works good when the quilts match up.

My Rhododendron Trail 

This one is too tall for this space.

I asked if it could be moved to a taller pole.

I hate how they folded it up, it looks bad!

EDITED TO ADD: This is how it looked today. 

Much better!!

My RBD Blue and White Block Challenge Quilt 

 Book Review Quilt 

Ta Da!

Big Reveal at this Festival.

Wildflower Challenge 

I'll know in the morning if I won any prize.

This it's Reveal here, too.

The Festival is Friday and Saturday!

That means I won't be getting my stitches in this weekend unless it's after the day is over.

I got the Quilt Guild Raffle Quilt back to

Sew the borders on.

It could take a while or go real quick.

Here are the choices...

2" inner border

1.5" flange

4" floral final border.

At the Lori Holt Day I worked on these 3 blocks.

I messed up on the cutting out so had to finish them at home in the afternoon.

Mr. Scarecrow -12"

Milk Cow -12"

Mama's Apron -12"

The last blocks I needed!!!

Hurray, time for the sashing and putting the Quilt together Row by Row!

Wednesday night I stayed up stitching these 6" blocks.

They are from the Vintage Christmas Book by Lori Holt.

I had the Layer cake left over from the Christmas Fat Quarter Shop SAL

Called "Evergreen", it's a MODA line by Sherri and Chelsi.

We'll see how long the Layer Cake lasts to make these blocks.

They are fun.

This Tulip Block is for our Outgoing

Quilt Guild President this year.

She requested Lori Holt Blocks in 6" size.

I hope she likes it.
