Hello Hadley!

Fell in love with Hadley. Badly.



I also have been in love with the Buzz Saw block lately. Thought I would add a little text print (some Chicopee and other friends may have demanded their way in there too...), cut right in and make me a new quilt. Free - style, from the notes I made in my head when I researched this block, like 2 months ago. 


Funny though, I kept thinking to myself while chopping fabric and moving colours around on my wall - 'These Buzz Saws sure look pineapple-ish.Who named this block anyways??!!'.


Jokes on me - if you want to make a Buzz Saw, you really should read the directions again before you begin and not just wing it...or you end up with pineapples.


Good thing I sure do fancy these pineapples.

Forging ahead and adding lime green - cause lime green goes with everything these days.



Happy weekend all!!!

  8. Gorgeous fabrics and so are your blocks. Even if they didn't turned out as the desing that you had in mind they are still fantastic. I agree with Gina you created a new block. So beautiful, it is going to be a stunning quilt.

  9. I love this quilt! To be fair I think a pineapple is kind of like a buzz saw because they are so sharp and pointy all over the place. Beautiful blocks, with a lovely background - can't wait to see more.
