Anniversaries Progress

Yay! Blogger is back! It's amazing how much you miss something when it's gone!

Anyway, Here is the June Block finished...

June block

And here is June and July together...

June and July

July will be for my mom. When I first saw it I immediately thought of her, and it worked out that her birthday is in July. Not sure what made me think of her....

My mom's house - can you tell she likes gray and white?? :) Here is the whole thing....

AotH progress as of 5/12/11

Well, I'm going to be taking a little blogging break. Things are going to busy for a little while (end of school craziness and we are planning to go to Florida again once school is out). Just thought I'd let you all know it might be awhile until I can post again. I'm also going to be busy working on my Prairie Schooler RR. I'm determined to get the pieces finished before our get together at the French Hens in Manning.

    But, still I have no idea why the swan block reminds you of her. ;)

  22. Hi, Nicole!
    Your blog is very interesting.
    I am one of your followers:)))

    And I'd like to ask you about your Shores of Hawk Run Hollow.
    Did you use treads like in the originale key or you changed it by your choise?
    I am not sure about treads 152/522 NPS. They look more grey than on your picture...
