I can finally share a finish with you. It seems I have so many things going and nothing to share lately. I was behind on my stitchery blocks for the Noah's Ark SAL project but today have caught up. Here are my first four blocks hanging on my quilt design wall.
Block three was 'Rainbow and cows'. As you can see, I am using a scrappy look for the log cabin strips sewn around each block.
Block four is 'Kangaroos'. This has been fun as not being from Australia, I never considered putting kangaroos in the ark. Aren't they adorable?
You can still join in on this fun free online project. Just pop over to Lynette Anderson's blog and check it out. She is really a talented quilt designer.

Lovely kangaroos! And I'm sure they would have been in the Ark!
Heidi,
Congratulations on keeping right up to date with this pretty SAL. I am so thrilled i was able to see the first section close up. the remainder look just as pretty. The kangaroos look as if they are two middle aged friends just off for a day's shopping!
Hugs, Angela
Cutecutecute Heidi!
I've had my eye on it, too -- I printed out the patterns but haven't started yet.

How sweet those blocks are. I also like how you are doing the sashing around your blocks. That's one of my favorite ways of doing that. I bet it feels good to be getting caught up.
Hugs - Karen
Well done Heidi on finishing your Noahs arc blocks Im still yet to finish my cows and start the kangaroos.
These are looking good, Heidi. Love the scrapiness, too!
Thanks anyway, I will just enjoy yours. LOL. It is coming along very well. I know for sure now that I am going to like stitching people better than anything else.
Guess what, Mandie did a blog entry today.
Love you, Mom
This is such a cute project Heidi, and I love the scrappy look you have given your squares. I'll enjoy watching your progress.
Oh Heidi, what a fun project. I love the little animals particularly the kangaroos, they are just cute.
This will be a great quilt.
Heidi, thanks for visiting my blog, and for suggesting the Pumpkin design! That is indeed a great project, and you´ve finished it beautifully!
Noah´s Ark is one of my favourite themes to stitch. Your quilt is already stunning and I can´twait to see therest :o)
I love these quilt blocks. I can't wait to see all of them put together. How many more are there? You look like you are having fun combining these two crafts.
Very sweet blocks! I like the scrappy look too.
Congratulations on staying current with the SAL - I'll take inspiration from you!
These little stitcheries are so nice, Heidi! I think I want to make them too, one day ...
Groetjes! Carolien

It's a fun project and you've chosen some nice fabrics to go with your blocks.
