I hope you all have had a great week and are going to have a productive sewing weekend! All of your posts were so motivational. I was inspired all week to get something completed. It was very cool, thank you :o)
I joined The Sisterhood of the Traveling Quilt and my block was due in January( I am a bit late). I always over think bee blocks. I always over think everything but especially bee blocks. I finally decided last weekend that I knew the PREFECT blocks to make...
From the book Vintage Quilt Revival by Katie Clark Blakesley, Faith Jones and Lee Heinrich I found the Rosey Windows Quilt. Katie had talked about this quilt and when she asked the question " What could you do differently?" My first thought was FUSSY CUT!
So, I did :o) I fussy cut some sweet Heather Ross and Munki Munki bits to make these wonderfully easy, very colorful blocks for my traveling quilt block.
and TA DA!
This week, to enhance MOTIVATION, I am giving away a mini set. There are four mini charm packs and a mini Omnigrid kit ( how cute is that set). I will choose a random winner from the link ups!
Let's get our SEWjo (sewing mojo) going! This link up will be open from Saturday through Sunday to give you LOTS of time in case you need to do silly other stuff like make dinner or driving your kids somewhere and then there is always making sure you have good lighting. The things we all have to go through...sigh ;o)
To participate in the party please...
1. Share a project from this past week or TODAY!!! Link it up from your blog or, if you do not have a blog, your Flickr photos. It can be a FABULOUS finish or a WIP ( any progress is always good)that you are working hard to get off your sewing table!
2. Share a link back to SEWjo Saturday somewhere in your post. I would be over the moon if you grabbed the button and shared that too ;o)
3. Share some love with some of the other posters!!!! Visit some of the linked up photos and get inspired by other quilty friends' work. And please leave some sunshine in their comments! Let's support each other!

Those are great looking blocks Kim, love the fussy cut middles.
I love them Kim!!
Great colors! So bright and fun!
I so love how your quilt top came out and those fussy cut pieces just make it pop! Great job :) Thanks for offering a chance to win some cool stuff! Time to get to work I guess so I can link up! Kathi
Cute blocks and thanks for another fun linky party!
Love your fussy cut centers! Too Cute.
Love your blocks! I added your Sewjo button to my blog too!
I don't have a Blog or a Flicker account. Too bad I can't link it to Facebook. I'm hardly ever NOT in the middle of a project. I have 2 quilts going right now. You've inspired me to run out and get a bolt of gray fabric. Always looks so nice tying in the different colors
Oh my goodness, love the bright colors and the fussy cutting! :) And what a fun prize!
Love the bright blocks plus the touch of fussy cutting! I also like the bigger pictures with the linky party, much easier to see what is linked up!
Lovely blocks!
Not sure which is funnier, the kids or you saying they were 'ALSEEP'!
Oh, and the 'PREFECT' blocks ;)
Oooh, fab blocks! As for the kids, well they do say 'never work with children and animals'... ;o)
Really love those blocks with the fussy cut centers. So fun and colourful. I've got your button up on my blog now, great idea for a link party.
Lovely fussy cutting action!!! Great fabrics and summery colors too!
