I have three of this little blocks done for the
The Neighborhood ~ Free Downloadable Here
to help with learning the stitches.
I discovered that I have been doing a common stitch
in a "different way" all these years.
and my stitching is my stitching.
The sketched image is less than 2" by 3."
I could have enlarged them but I like the challenge of the little blocks.
I am very happy with the how these blocks are working up.
I am thinking to search my stash soon for fabrics to go with these blocks to make a small wall quilt.
Because I am focusing on these blocks this month, I have been trying to resist all the other wonderful quilt-alongs I have been seeing online. I have been following along and enjoying the eye candy.
One of them is the Riley Blake 2022 Block Challenge

Another quilt-along that I will be following is this one:
The Beautiful Day Mystery BOM by Corey Yoder
There is a sneak peek at a block in this link: Coriander Quilts on FB
I love this fabric line but have resisted purchase as my stash overfloweth with fabrics that I love.
My quilty reading of the week ahs been this book off my shelves.
I have no idea when I acquired this book but I vaguely recall it was on a sale table and may be used. It looks like new though.
The Improv Hanbook For Modern Quilters
It is a wonderful book!
One of the many words of wisdom in this book is this favorite gem.
I need to remind myself every once in awhile
that there are really no mistakes in quilting.
It is all in the eye of the beholder.
I choose to have a forgiving eye.
To all my readers and my friends @
Happy Thursday!
