Grandmother's Choice BOW

I liked the block this week for two reasons...easy and then I had an idea to personalize the blocks.  I went thru the 37 that we have done so far and tried to determine who will "sign" the block.  Most of them were pretty easy to determine through Barbara Brackman's history lessons with each block.  I am still deciding on a couple, but for the most part there is a lady who played a part in the suffrage movement on each block.  I was looking for a handwriting font and then said...hmmm I wonder if there are their actual signatures out there...wonders of the Internet.  I have found some and will continue to look...I have started with Lucy Stone on block 37. Here is her signature and below how it came out on the block. Now on to the other 36 ;o)

It's that time of year...

Time to sign up for Primitive Gatherings Summer BOW...yes block of the week.  Loved it from last year...hmmmm need to finish that one ;o)  Just look at the wonderful picture below.  Usually you also get a "freebie" with your block, but it is not posted on Lisa's blog yet.  Go sign up now!

Happy Scrappy Spring Row 1

Well I was able to finish Row 1 of Happy Scrappy Spring 1/2 size.  Math to make smaller was not hard to do and was good for me.  Kaaren posted Row 2 on Wednesday so I need to get going on that too.  It seemed to be easier with 9 patches and no flying geese...I do think I will substitute an embroidery design this time...we will see. Hope you like. I love the bunny tale.
