Beothuk Star QAL ~ Block 1

Block 1 done for the

Beothuk Star QAL @ mmm! Quilts

Since I only actually started cutting and sewing this quilt

Here ~ Yesterday

I am very pleased with my progress.

I think all the HSTs are in the right places and turned the right way.

I had a very helpful block inspector when I went to photograph this block
so I took it outside to enjoy the end of day sun in my yard.

No roofers today.
Well they boss showed up in the morning.
but he did not have enough workers.
Hopefully tomorrow will be the day.

My hubby did not enjoy getting up early to move his car
when he is usually sleeping for his nightshift job
and he is even less happy pleased that he has to do it over again tomorrow.

I am enjoying sewing along

and I love my fabrics!

Only a few fat quarters needed to participate.

There were some pretty kits, too.

Are you sewing along?

A New QAL ~ Classic Meets Modern

Here is my first block!

Erin @ Sew at Home Mummy

is hosting this 12 month quilt along ...

"Classic Meets Modern" feels like a place I find myself these days.

So I decided I had to join in and see what I might learn
if I challenged myself to make these blocks.

I am hoping for a scrappy quilt using some mini charm packs that I have, low-volume background prints and some Kona Solids and whatever other fabrics
that may come along that want to jump in these blocks.

The mini charms are ...

Road 15 by Sweetwater

and this will determine my color scheme for this quiltalong.

Linking up with the other blocks this month at

Classic Meets Modern Quiltalong January Blocks

Looking forward to next month's block.

Thanks, Erin!

Also linking up today with all the wonderful works in progress at

Design Wall Monday @ Patchwork Times

I love all the quilty inspiration I find in these linky parties
