May FW Blocks, A Finish and A Link...

July QAL Design (Just a peek!)

I finished my July design for the monthly QAL at Sandy's Quilt Shop! I'm really happy with the finished mini quilt. I'll share the pattern with all of you in July in case you'd like to make you're own.

Now it's time to turn my thinking back to the Farmer's Wife QAL...

Although I haven't finished all my April blocks, I'm going to put up the list for May so that the gals who are participating will know what to make after the April blocks.

Here are the May blocks:
# 1 - Attic Windows
# 3 - Basket
# 4 - Basket Weave
# 8 - Bouquet
#30- End of Day
#35- Flower Basket
#39- Friendship
#54- Kitchen Woodbox
#56- Maple Leaf
#60- Noon and Light
#61- Northern Lights
#73- Rainbow Flowers
#75- Rosebud
#85- Square Dance
#86- Squash Blossom
#89- Steps To The Altar
#92- Streak of Lightning
#96- Tulip
#97- Waste Not
#109- Windows

I'm looking forward to working on more blocks. I have about twenty three finished, with over one hundred on my list. My goal is to have them finished into a quilt by the end of the year, so none of us should feel pressured. Even so, it's time for me to get back to them.

I mentioned white chocolate-stuffed raspberries yesterday, and receive a few inquiries about what they are. I can tell you the chocolate flavor comes through more when they're served at room temperature. Thanks to Saucy's Sprinkles (blog) for sharing the idea just in time for summer.
