I have made some good progress on Nantucket this week.
I made all of my 5 patch blocks up and inserted a scattering of stars too.
Now I just need to sew the blocks together...
and that shouldn't be too hard to accomplish this weekend.
Although I have some carpets to clean and housework to tackle
before the holiday!
Thanksgiving will be at my house this year. It is the standard, but I give it
up every now and then.
I do like it when I have a house full though.
I had a couple of "old friends" return home this week...
My Fat Quarter Shop sample quilts.
Strawberry Social and Butter Mints.
Both are kits that are now available at FQS...
they are made with Pam Kitty Morning fabrics...
which I am in love with.
I love it so much that I have a couple more projects using her fabrics in the
queue. I am dying to make the lunchbox pattern and I am toying with the
idea of using PKM fabrics for another quilt that is popping up this week
in blogville. You can see what I am talking about here.
Evie is going to love her Strawberry Social quilt.
I am hanging on to Butter Mints though.
Here is another little something I got this week.
A friend of mine had this for her grand children... who have now
outgrown it. I was able to pick it up from her for a sweet little price.
I am tickled pink about it too!!!
Can you just see Evie playing with these sweet things?
We just need some mini size laundry to go with it!
14 friends stopped by to chat:
How cute is that set!
Your Nantucket blocks are so pretty!
May I come over for a play date? I love the little laundry set. Evie will have so much fun and busy time with it.
WOW! Your Nantucket quilt is really coming along ! It is beautiful ! I really like the stars with the birds ! Evie is going to have SO much fun with that cute little set .
Nantucket is coming right along! The laundry stuff is absolutely precious!
Love the quilts. Especially the strawberry one with the Pam Kitty fabrics! And I really love the new play set for your granddaughter. I would love to have that myself!

What pretty quilts! I love your Nantucket. I've been considering doing that pattern and/or using the M&S Reds for a quilt for my mom's bday. I have also been contemplating using PKM for the APQ QAL! I just love her fabrics--they are so cheerful.
Nantucket is gorgeous! The fabrics just shine with that pattern. Love your PKM quilts too!
Love those little stars in Nantucket... Gorgeous! And that set is awesome. :-)
I am not too far behind you Sinta. I finished up all my nine patches yesterday and am ready to start putting it all together!
Mini-size laundry? That's called doll clothes! I'd love to find a set like that for my grandkids. Even my grandson loves the little vacuum they have. He loves to help his mom.
And I love your Nantucket!
Oh your Nantucket is going to be wonderful!! I remember I had a little laundry set when I was young, Evie is going to have a blast washing her doll clothes and quilts. :-)
Nantucket is a beautiful quilt. I have quite a few of the M&S midwinter reds, I might have to make this one.
Oh your Nantucket quilt is looking great!! Love that little play set, that's adorable!
Nantucket is looking perfect!
