JUNE'S PROJECTS

Off to a good start--
Finished all the blocks to the Shabby rose quilt--
and the top of it is all done--

am working on this one now--
this is the Stringbark farm from 2009--
These are one that I did earlier--
Miss mack was very very slow in getting these blocks to us--
and I seems that we are 2 blocks short--that she never did do for us--
so here is some drawing I did--
like these two--
or --
hummmmm????

And I got the last 3 blocks to this quilt prepped---
This is a Bunny Hill bom from 2010
