Wow! I can not believe today is the last day of 2013! Where has December gone! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year :). This month is the sixth and last month of the Easy As ABC QAL. Again I ran out of time to do all the blocks and only managed to do 2 of the blocks that I had already calculated in earlier months i.e. for “E” and “S”. I am making a smaller version of the Easy As ABC QAL quilt i.e. reducing the blocks/quilt by 50% so it will be a cot quilt or a nice lap sized quilt for a toddler :). My 11yo son is turning 12yo in just over 1 week and has requested a Minecraft quilt for his birthday present. I am busily trying to get it done before his birthday and hoping that I can finish the rest of this Easy As ABC QAL blocks and the quilt top by January 13th 2014 :).

November have flown by so quickly. I can not believe there is only 2 weeks left of school before my kids go on summer vacation. Lots still to do and so little time! For the fifth month of Easy As ABC QAL, I have calculated and cut out all the letters but only found time to sew 2 of the blocks. I hope to finish the other 3 next week :).

Wow! Where have November gone! I can not believe there’s only one day left of November. This school term have been crazy busy with lots of school events and birthday parties. I did manage to finish my Piece of Cake 3 quilt for my 7 years old daughter’s birthday this month. Quilting is not perfect but a big improvement compared with my first 2 quilts. My daughter loves her quilt and started using it as soon as it was dry :).

I have been trying to finish some WIPs that I have neglected my Farmer’s Wife Sampler quilt. I have recently finished my youngest daughter’s quilt so I took a break to make Block #30 End of Day :). Here are my 15 blocks so far for Farmer’s Wife Sampler quilt. Except for one block, they were all made by foundation paper piecing.

Time is flying by really quickly. I had plans to make these blocks at the beginning of this month but there were too many school events keeping me busy. Luckily there was nothing planned today so I quickly made up the blocks for this month. Here are my 5 blocks for this month. Here are all the blocks so far. I can not wait to finish all the blocks and piece it all together :). To find out more information about Easy As ABC QAL, please visit Blossom Heart Quilts’ Easy As ABC QAL :).
