It's been nice to have a week to catch up on some quilting tasks. Earlier in the week I finished the top for my Lyra tablerunner, and it's now layered and ready to quilt.
Then I got busy working on block 9 for the Little House sew-along at Melva Loves Scraps and it's now finished, too! It started with a sweet center block that Melva calls Prairie Rose. Choosing the fabrics for this one, using my fall-themed prints, was more challenging than sewing it up. Of course this one looks like a sunflower rather than a rose!
Add the log cabin strips, and here it is.
Now all nine blocks are made, and we can start to play with layouts. I think the finishing instructions will be out next week.
I can already see a block or two ⬆️
that I'm going to have to rearrange.
I fussy cut a favorite bit of orange from the jelly roll for this block!
Having a leader/ender block is helpful when sewing these log cabins together, so I was able to finish a gameboard block along the way, too. It even uses scraps from the Little House project!
And there goes orange month! I'm wondering what our next color will be.

and at Melva Loves Scraps for the Little House sew-along, block 9.
