Since I took my finished January quilt block in to my localish sewing studio in person on the correct day (there are many rules to this process), they gave me a free pattern and fabric to make February’s square. Here it is. It was hard. I took it in on the correct day in March and have the free March one now. It looks even harder. I know I am teaching myself a lot of things with this project. Like how to quilt, use my new sewing machine, follow a pattern, humility. I’m going to do every single months’ square mostly because I’m stubborn. That’s how I roll.

Yes, stubborness helps. It’s amazing how many simple tricks you forget when you don’t sew for 20 years! I got a new sewing maching last year and the darn thing threads its own needle for crying out loud! Whoda thunk??

You look like you are doing fine with the squares. Will you show us the rest of the blocks? I like the colors.

Thanks so much! I’ll definitely post the rest of the blocks as well as the finished quilt. I appreciate the encouragement!
