Wow! The last Monday of September is already here. We had a really beautiful month of September around here with sunny warm days, and not windy for a change. I'm hoping October is just as nice so the pretty leaves stick around longer.
Yesterday I posted about some of the projects I want to work on during October. The main new project that I'm beginning is a sew along from Bear Creek Quilting. It's called Cactus in the Cabin and has only 2 different types of blocks.
The September tutorial is for traditional Log Cabin blocks. There will be 16 of these made. I spent some time cutting the strips needed for them. I even got round #1 added to all 16 of the center squares, but realized that I need a bit more variety of my pink and orange batiks before getting much further. I'll have to stop in at both local quilts shops this week to see what I can add to those pink and orange strips.
I'll also be working on some WIPs this week including the Windmill quilt top that is nearly done. There are only 4 rows left to add but I keep procrastinating. It's now laying on the floor in my sewing room now so I have to step over it or around it every time I go in or out. That should force me to finish it up, right?
Last week was a catch up week for Blockheads with no new block posted, but I've kept up so far anyway. This week there will be a new block posted again so there will be a bit of red, white and blue coming out to play midway in the week.
And you know there will be some RSC blocks taking shape all week too.
