Thank you for following along on my blog post last week. The majority of the blocks I have designed for Blockheads are all lovey-dovey inspired. Because I was doing hearts I also decided to add some pinks to my blocks. I get bored easily and that is probably why I lean to doing scrap quilts.  More to come on that when it is my turn again.

I love color and love fabrics and since I opened the door for more color, I added a touch of color to this week’s block, 9 Patch Block designed by Laurie Simpson.

You can find the pattern for this block on Laurie’s blog.

I could make an entire quilt using this block pattern.

There are so many options on how you can color it.

I was also thinking this would make a fantastic alternate block

as the setting for my blockhead’s quilt since I am still undecided about the layout.

The little treasures that I added to my pic this week are some sports memorabilia

pins that I have had for a long time. Laurie is a big sports junkie,

so I had to use these pins this week.

There is nothing like putting on a baseball game while sewing.

Do you have a favorite team?

Keep in mind that I have no idea on my layout so I have been making different size blocks and playing with fabrics, but my biggest accomplishment is I am not behind!!
