I made a little progress

with my hexes for border blocks around

 my children of the 30's quilt blocks here and here.

I've been sitting in front of the TV sewing

a little bit in the evenings when I get the opportunity.

I love these colors together and

 really prefer more modern fabrics over the 30's

fabrics Arlene used in her quilt.

Notice all the polka dot fabrics?  I seem to be fascinated

 with those polka dots lately.

I can't wait to get enough hexes to sew them into

the diamond blocks and see how they take shape.

Some of you may remember the cute "Oh Boy" charm

pack I won over on Greg's blog awhile back.

I have a new little great nephew and decided these

fabrics would make a perfect baby boy quilt.

I only have the blocks sewn in rows for now and

hope to get it put together soon.

The assorted three blue polka dot fabrics to the right

will be borders, binding and of course the minkee

goes on the back.  I love the feel of the soft minkee

and hope it will be loved by the baby as well.

Counting time is not so important

as making time count.

Thanks for stopping by and

have a creative day.
