More summer stitches

    My favorite blocks so far.  I can still remember when a sand bucket and shovel kept me happily occupied.  I live in Indiana now, but that doesn't stop me from wishing for the smell and sound of the waves.

   I'm using all these blocks to make a child's quilt but I like showing other uses.  This fabric cube used to hold my summer sun lotion and bug spray was made using a tutorial from crazy mom quilts

      This spring, we've had a birds nest on the front porch.  I'd like to say its sweet and interesting to watch and it is, but mostly, I miss my front porch swing.  The swing is just too close to the nest and it disturbs the poor mother bird.  Happy stitching!
