The links to these items are at the bottom of the post. If you find more of these, please let me…

Sunday's sewing - the large leaf block Monday's sewing - stacks of units for 12 leaves…

This is Jenny’s Canadian Sesquicentennial Celebration quilt, say that ten times fast! :) Northcott Fabrics released this great collection to celebrate Canada’s 150th anniversary last year. Jenny asked for straight line quilting and it really suited the quilt highlighting the Hudson Bay Blanket lines that she pieced into the quilt. I used beige So Fine thread and Quilters Dream Blend batting. I have been having fun taking pictures of lightening this summer as I love a good thunderstorm. This…
