I also made another light and dark green Sisters..
next I played with some Trail Mix blocks...
and of course as they're addictive I had to do some more....
Okay that's enough Trail Mix as I had the next set of Toni's cute "Paper Dolls" to make..
and as we are getting together for
" Days for Girls "the first time since
Covid I finished some Shields ...
I also made some " Aussie Hero " blocks but have popped them into an envelope ready to address and then post with my other parcels before taking a photo ....
I'M STILL WAITING !!!!!
So must away service my machine , put in a new needle and QUILT...
Happy Stitching, stay safe and well,
Hugs Maria ❤❤
Each of your projects are coming along beautifully. Tumbler has to learn to be patient and wait in line quietly.
ReplyDeleteMaria, you have been and are super busy. What lovely projects. Your sisters are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love the newest sisters., and the Paper Dolls. They are sooo cute. Your Trail Mix blocks are coming together so nicely too. I’m glad you were able to get some sewing together time. It’s always more fun with friends.
ReplyDeleteLots of nice things happening Maria. Happy quilting. xx
ReplyDeleteAs a Wizard of Oz Fan I just had to sing out your title: Sisters, Block-Shields, and Parcels..Oh My!..The Sisters blocks are so adorable and the Trailmix looks like a great way to use your scraps. Love the paper dolls....when I was young I used to wait for the McCalls Magazine so I could cut out Betsy McCall. Love that blue Paisley fabric in your last photo!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I am so slow......I just realized after all these years of reading your blog that your "Life on the Block isn't the block you live on....duh....
ReplyDeleteYep--love the blue and green sisters blocks--and well--all those projects you have gotten done or are in progress and growing!! We do manage for the most part to keep ourselves busy don't we???? And those paper dolls are just soooo cute!
ReplyDeleteluv, di
lovely sister blocks.... and other projects of course. I like where trail mix is going... do you choose any colours... it looks so good. Paper Dolls is growing so well...

Lovely blocks Maria ,well done xx
ReplyDeleteMaria, you have done so much! Trail Mix looks great and is really coming along. I was surprised how fast they sew up once I got them cut out.
ReplyDeleteThe sisters blocks reminds me that I need to send Jo some fabric for hers! I keep forgetting!
The paper dolls are ADORABLE!
You have been sewing up a storm Maria! Love your Sisters blocks and your Dolls, you are doing really great with your Trail Mix blocks too. Enjoy your quilting.
ReplyDeleteLove your sisters blocks and the super cute doll blocks too. You always seem to have such a lot of interesting stitching going on!
ReplyDeleteLots of lovely colour! I particularly like the Trail Mix blocks - that quilt is going to be wonderful.
ReplyDeleteOh Maria, you have done some amazing sewing. It is wonderful to follow and read your progress
ReplyDeleteLove your trail mix blocks, they look so tempting, but need to finish other stuff first, and love your Paper Dolls blocks. Will the Sisters blocks have faces on them?
ReplyDeleteYou are getting lots done. Love those paper dolls, and your trail mix is looking fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI am really quite smitten with your trail mix blocks now that I see them all together so far. Makes for the most awesome scrap quilt ever! I love the paper dolls. I have been tempted many times to make them, but have so many other things in line at the sewing machine. Like my sisters blocks! They are all still bagged up, waiting so patiently to get sewn together! Glad I popped in today. I’ve been so remiss about visiting blogs. Take extra special care!
ReplyDeleteVersion 3 comment....your sisters are beautiful and it will be a gorgeous quilt. Trail mix is certainly growing as are your Paper Dolls xx
ReplyDeleteAha, there is your trail mix post. You mentioned it in an earlier post and I was searching for it. It is coming along very nicely. Yes, it is hard to put down once you start.
