Granmother's Choice- Block 1 (Dots on Dots- D5)

Weekly Block posted.  This week's block can be found HERE.  I decided to use a couple scrap bags of 3 different lines of moda fabrics that happen to have the Red, White and Blue color way.  I wish I could remember the lines of fabric, but below is a picture of the fabric if you have an idea of what they might be, let me know!

My First Block completed!

The fabric I am using is in the upper right hand side of the box!
Now I do not have any other items to show as finishes today; please check back tomorrow !

Don't Forget to check these Blogs Out!
Day 5

On Your Mark...


I wasn't able to get my WIP post completed to show my progress on a few projects this week.  While chatting for most of yesterday afternoon with my sister-in-law, I was working on my blocks for the RW&B Blog Hop (thankfully for her sake there is a mute button so I could put her on speaker and floor my machine peddle)!

It really was my goal to get these blocks completed before the month started, but I was sincerely struggling with inspiration.  I mean I found a great paper-pieced pattern HERE that I thought would be neat, but then I cheekily thought I should super-impose Alaska across the middle to show how large it is (still not out of the question, just not in time for tomorrow)!  I realized that since I have never paper-pieced before, this is probably not the week to try that out.  As per usual, inspiration struck out of desperation, and a couple of the blocks came about by sheer accident!  One of the blocks I am even trying to wiggle into a lap quilt, but all I am going to tease you with today is a basket of scrap fabrics from which I started!  Come back tomorrow for my post and you can see what I have been up to for the past couple of days!
