I finally finished the stitching on month 8 of "Baltimore Bunnies". I have had this block prepped and sitting next to my sewing chair for about a month now.
I managed 7 more klosjes on my lunch hours. I think I have enough fabric prepped for 1 more block so it is time to start prepping more. Fun. NOT!
I also went to sew with the girls at The Orange Quilt Bee today. This is my favorite shop within a 20 mile radius from my house. If I could only go to one shop in my area, and there are many to chose from, it would be there. I guess I should have taken pictures to show you why. ugh! They would have been blurry anyway. LOL!
Anyway, I worked on "Vintage Valentine" today with hopes of getting the top finished. The fussy cutting and my chatting with friends took too long and I wasn't able to get her done. All I have left is the outside mitered borders. YAY!!
I hope you all have a great week. I am driving out to Las Vegas tomorrow morning to spend time with family. I heard there are some nice quilt shops there so I am hoping to ditch the family for a few hours to explore.

Lovely CW blocks. The bunny is too cute. I do not enjoy cutting fabric, I want to sew. lol Have a safe trip and I hope you get to some shops.
Your little bunnies are so cute!! :0)
Looks Great!
All great projects Yvette. I know you are glad to have worked on the Vintage Valentine for a bit. I did not know the corners were mitered. Don't know if I could have handled that.
Baltimore Bunny is so cute. :D Love the Civil War blocks. I just posted this week's BOM's AWAY, if you care to share your work over there: http://whatahootquilts.blogspot.com/2011/07/boms-away-monday-8.html
Have a safe and fun trip!! Can't wait to see what you bring back from those quilt shops. :-)
CW blocks are so pretty. I'm loving the fabric. Ok, so could those bunnies be any more darling??? I love them!! Just not in my flower beds! LOL!
Looks like a great week's sewing to me. Hope you have a safe trip to Las Vegas.
Love your blocks...it's a shame how little you got done ROFL. I have gotten zip...nada...nothing done in a couple of weeks!!
Enjoy your time with the family :0)

Have fun in Vegas! My favorite quilt shop in that is Quiltique in Henderson.
Your CW blocks look wonderful and your bunnies are beautiful.
Cutting is my least fave part of the quilt process too.
Hope you have a fabulous time in Vegas!
Love your blocks, as usual. Especially the bunny one!
Definitely ditch the family and go off on your own!! Hope you have a great time!

HOpe you had a great trip. I did visit one shop in Las Vegas when I took my trip to CA. It had lots of fabric.
Love the bunnies.
Pretty blocks...love the Baltimore Bunny...have fun in Vegas...try and stay cool!!
Wonderful blocks! I love the t blocks.
Happy hunting for patchwork shops!
Beautiful CW blocks, I love the bunnies best of all though :)
The CW blocks are awesome (that top one especially speaks to me... I could see a whole quilt in that!) and look at those happy bunnies! Sigh... I'm with you on the whole block prep thing. Cutting is definitely NOT my favorite thing to do. It's right up there with basting.
