Valentine blocks are finished...

So I've been working on the log cabin blocks for the Valentine Quilt.  Here they are....on my "design floor" waiting to be pinned...

Anyhow, just thought I'd give a teaser.  I should have the quilt top pieced this week.  I'm doing a "show and tell" at school because the inmates are curious about how a pile of fabric becomes a quilt.  They've now seen pieces (logs) and the blocks....next, I'll bring in the top, and batting and the back to show how it gets assembled into a "blanket" (gasp!!).  LOL....more to come!

  3. I think this is gorgeous! It is also quite wonderful of you to show the inmates how things go together. Kids seldom get to see how things are made in our modern world.
