Mystery Block of the Month 7
April 4, 2012 I signed up for this project with a friend. But she lives almost an hour away and our schedules are turning out to be far from compatible. We've only managed to get together ONCE last Fall to sew our blocks. I cheated a little and did a few more without her, but I felt so guilty for going a little ahead so I haven't made any since.
But I'm starting to feel so disorganized and I have so many other projects going on here that I just NEEDED to get caught up with this & start planning the final quilt. So she graciously gave me permission to continue if I promised to still help her when we can get together.
Done. :)
So! Here's block #7 ... only about 5 months late.
It was designed by the lovely Cyndi Walker. I had the pleasure of meeting her at Quilt Market last year. Super nice girl.
Cute, eh?
While making this block I realized these are my two favorite prints ... polka dots and little flowers on a tiny dot background.

I'm tragically behind on this BOM also. I'm finishing up a commission quilt (blocks should be done today after I get home from work!) and then back to this one! I think I've only done the first 4!!!!
Love it! I really like the colours and fabrics in this block, too. Should be fun to see it come together!
I'm also participating in this designer mystery block of the month. I'm enjoying the club but oh some of the blocks are very time consuming! The points on your blocks are so much pointer than mine...
This really is adorable! And, yep, I agree about that floral with itty bitty polka dots! Fig Tree at its finest! :)
You know that the reason why I'm don't liko BOMs so much - because I'm always behind! Love your blocks and there's something so sweet about polka dots and flower prints - I just can't help myself and buy them whenever I spy them;-)

Yay! You must be so happy to get caught up! Only two more months to go till the finish! And I didn't comment on yesterday's post, but I showed it around today as an example of the kind of shelves that I'd like to have... someday.
Your block is beautiful! It's very feminine and romantic.
Thank you!
