August Block of Month

This is my eighth in the block of the month series with countryjunktion.com. I used several different techniques. It is posted online the 1st of each month. Mine will be a Christmas gift. Designed by Amy Heaton on Connecting Threads.  

Ohio Collection in progress

This is my Ohio Collection by Anita Shackelford that all the piecing was done in 2005 and has sit in a box until now. I did not have the expertise to put it together then. All different sizes and no pattern to lay it out..lots of gaps to be filled in..I am really enjoying it and hopefully will have it all done by Fall. Over 1/2 way there. Below is English paper piecing block...I had one done but the pieces were larger so decided to re-do and I am hand sewing to a piece of fabric and will fit it in the blank space. This was a monthly workshop I took at a local quilt store. I am the only one who finished all the blocks.
