Tula Pink Modern Blocks for June and July

Yesterday and today, I worked on my Architextures Tula Pink Modern Blocks.  I have 30 finished.  When I have 70 finished, I will make the quilt on pages 228-233 of Tula Pink's City Sampler 100 Modern Quilt Blocks.  I also want to FMQ the blocks as shown in the book.  I mean what goes together better than a City and Architextures?  Seriously.

Here are June's blocks - 2, 12, 22, 32, 42, 52, 62, 72, 82 & 92:


And July's blocks - 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73, 83 & 93:

 
 
Caught up now!  That is a good feeling.  Going to take the afternoon and go sit in the sun.

Easy as ABC QAL Month One

I have been out of town.  I didn't get to sew anything while I was gone BUT I did visit some very cool quilt shops!  I had a great time the last part of my trip visiting with my son-in-law, daughter and grandbabies.  Oh, I had so much fun!  Plus, I get to make a couple of special quilts for my grandson and granddaughter.  I love that!  Since my grandson is so into his ABC's, guess who is getting the ABC quilt?

Sew today, hah, I sat down and got busy with the Easy As ABC QAL with Blossom Heart Quilts:




Easy As ABC
 
 
I got the fat quarter pack along with the border material from Sew Lux Fabric.  I love the fat quarters that they picked out and sent!  If you haven't joined yet, there is time.  This is going to be a lot of fun!

Different Craftsy BOM's for June - Which one?

Here is the Craftsy block for the month of June.  I redid it in different colors and made it by sewing two strips together and cutting them on a 45 degree angle:


There are no Y-seams in this block. 

Here is the one that I did previously with half square triangles:

 
Which one do you like better? 
 
It's mid July and I still have the one from July to make.
