sew many blocks

Currently, I'm working on three quilts.
one miniature, other one is a lap size and the quilt for my dear husband.

Here's the progress,




3"x3", 9 patches for miniature quilt.



T square block pattern by Temecula Quilt Co.





Lady Liberty, Chevron and U.S.A. block for DH's quilt that I named "Semper Fidelis".

"Semper Fidelis" means "Always Faithful" for Latin. This is the U.S. Marine Corps motto since 1883.

A true quilter...always working on more than one project at a time. All three projects look like something anyone could sink their teeth into...especially your applique project!

The new look of your blog is so cute! Your new projects look great (like everything else you do). I'm looking forward to seeing the finished Marine quilt.

Libby said...

What great projects . . . it would be hard to decide which to work on first. Hubby is going to just LOVE his Semper Fidelis quilt, you are designing a true treasure.

Hubby's quilt is going to be fantastic! The T Square block has always reminded me of kimonos. All of your blocks look great and of course I love the repro fabrics.

Rosemary said...

I can't wait to see the finished quilt you are making for your hubby!
You must spend alot of time quilting, and not on the internet like me! LOL!

はじめまして♪
少し前にLeaさんのブログにたどり着いて以来、時々遊びにお邪魔しております。私はこの春あたりから何年かぶりにキルト作りを再開しまして、自宅のインテリアに合うようなキルト作りをと思っておりましたが、通っている近くのキルト屋さんの影響で、最近ではLeaさんがお作りになられるようなVintageなスタイルのキルトにもどんどん惹かれています☆Temecula Quilt Co.へお出かけになられたのですね!私もいつか行ってみたいなぁ、と時々ブログに伺ってはうっとりしていましたら、Leaさんのブログにも投稿があってビックリしました。これからも楽しみにお伺いします。

What lovely little blocks. I do like the T block and 9patches are always a good choice.

Janet said...

Are you making the "charming T square" quilt shown in your last post? I love it! I'm tempted to join you.

Meredith said...

Wow, I love your blog!

Lucy said...

Like your new blog layout Lea! And your nine patches are an inspiration. I'm never bored of them :-)
