Summer sewing

I've been really lazy with my quilting and blogging past few months. It was busy time at work  and in the spring I just wanted to outside as much as possible. Winters can be long and tiresome in Finland.

As a side project I'm been doing some blocks from Susan Briscoe's book Japanese Taupe Quilt Blocks (2010). I made four of this block using reproduction cotton prints and natural colour linen. Block is called Chigai igeta (number 25 in Susan's book) and it is 9" square when in quilt. I really enjoy doing my quilts by hand so these are all handpieced. It will probably be some years before I even got all my blocks done. Here is pictures of two different setting for blocks.
