Wendy & her Lost Boys

Bringing up 5 rowdy boys & 1 twirly girl!

Block #1

on April 8, 2008

For some reason I get a lot of sewing-related newsletters in my inbox ;) and one of them is from You Can Make This. I haven’t bought much from this site, since most of their patterns tend towards the ’boutique’ style that is very much not me. However, right now you can download free directions for a mystery quilt; only the first two blocks have been posted so far. As you may know, I’m not much of a quilter. . .but this sounded like an easy project and a fun way to use some of the scraps I’ve saved.

Here is my first block:

I wish I had had a print to use for the brown, but I’m determined to do this project entirely from stash if possible!! The solid quilter’s cotton is left from some long-forgotten applique design, I’m sure. The pink print is from a jumper I made for the twirly girl a couple years ago.

Stay tuned for more mystery block posts as I get them pieced (and photographed. . .). . .


I look forward to hearing from you!
