I have made five more blocks since I last shared my progress with you.
Block 8/100 - Friends around the Square. I thought this block could make a great future RSC project.
Block 9/100 - The Local Quilt Shop. My quilt store appears to be open late and is a little ramshackle. I am not sure what happened to it.
Block 10/100 - Iowa. I really like this block for its simplicity.
Block 11/100 - Crocheted Thoughts. This was another design that I chose
to make my own. Rather than crochet a doily in the center, I chose to
fussy cut a Kaffe flower.
...and here is how they look all together . The bottom two blocks are alternate blocks. The one on the left is one designed as part of the Splendid Sampler. The one on the right was a block designed for Baby Lock's National Quilting Month celebration. I really liked the block and thought it would work great if I needed a substitute.
I am already looking forward to Thursday when the next block is released!

I like your idea to sub a block sometimes. I have so much handwork on the go that I may be "inspired" by you for the crochet block!
as per block 11/100, it is absolutely striking!
This is coming along beautifully! Keep posting...I love seeing what you do!
Beautiful blocks! And there are a couple of them that have RSC possibilities... 8)
I'm inspired by your fabric choice and need to purchase some to give myself something other than my bright polka-dots to play with. :)
Those are such pretty fabrics! I like what you did with Block 11- very You! :)
i like the fabrics and methods you have chosen for this sew along....embroidery isn't for everyone and doesn't always enhance a quilt...you have selected a better path in my opinion, but how can u go wrong with kaffe?
Your blocks look fabulous! I don't do hand embroidery well, so my crocheted thoughts block will probably/definitely get swapped out for something else somewhere along the road. LOVE your blog.
What bright fun blocks! I really like how you altered the block to make it your own.
Those are really cute - your colors are wonderful!
