This week I made up the pink and green Grandma's blocks for my Grandma's quilt. Poor neglected Grandma. I haven't made any blocks for a couple of months. I'll need to catch up! Here are the pinks and green for this month:
Gosh, they're so pretty! I don't remember my grandmother ever wearing this color combination, but it's one of my favorites. I love pink and green together. They always look happy. One of my friends went to Sweet Briar College, and their colors are pink and green, and I'm always jealous!
And speaking of green. . .the other thing I was working on this week was the tiny squares quilt. I like the bright green one:
And what can I possibly be doing over here?
I guess we'll find out!
I have to go now and make an offer to buy a house! Who else is excited? I'm finally, finally getting out of this condo! I'm so excited I forgot to publish this post on time!
Have a great weekend!

Yaay to having found an offer-worthy house. Fingers crossed for you! Your pink and green blocks are lovely. I posted a picture, yesterday, of some rhubarb, and commented that it's pinks and greens were inspiration colors for a quilt. You beat me to it!
ReplyDeleteHope you find some relief from the heat. It's a lovely 70 with a cool breeze here today. Just perfect!
Wishing you good luck with the house. I understand, believe me, just don't ask, please! :^D It's true that pink and green look so good together. Strawberry rhubarb is a perfect combination; heat and humidity, not so much! ;^)
ReplyDeleteI love the layout you've chosen for your little squares; it's perfect. I agree about green and pink: sweet and tart at the same time!
ReplyDeleteGod luck with the house purchase!
The green postage stamp block is wonderful - green is my favorite color. It is so fresh and symbolizes much to me- new growth, new beginnings. Darker greens are comforting for me.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear about the house. Crossing my fingers that yr offer is accepted!
I love pink and green, it is a great combo of colors, so fresh! You chose a beautiful layout for the stamps blocks. Good lucky with the house, Mari.

It's remarkable tthat you've had any chance to work on your blocks, with the house business occupying so much time and mental stress. We went through it seven times. Take a deep breath now and then and keep on stitching when you can!
ReplyDeleteYour grandma blocks look very intricate. You are making good progress on them. You are also doing an impressive job on your scrappy squares. I hope your offer on the house is accepted. I know you are ready for more space (for quilting and fabric, of course).
ReplyDeleteLove those grandma blocks! So pretty! Good luck on that house offer.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, good luck with your house offer! That is very exciting news. Now, on to your work.....oh my goodness, what beautiful blocks for your Grandmas quilt! And your tiny squares quilt? It's going to be absolutely awesome!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the house purchase! I love the little squares and how that top is developing.
ReplyDeleteThe blocks are beautiful. Could you please tell me how little the squares??
