So that I don’t look like a neglectful mother, I present to you the completed blocks for the Jewel Squares baby quilt! Many squares down, but many MANY more to go!

 

Jewel Squares by you.

Jewel Squares by you.

 

Jewel Squares by you.

And some scissors for scale on these itty bitty ones:Jewel Squares by you.

This is such a long sewing process and it’s testing my patience, but it will be beyond worth it!

That’s all for now… off to prepare for my husband’s birthday party. He’s turning 28 today, on 8-8-08. That’s right…for those of you quick in the mental math category he turned eight on 8-8-88. Born at 8:00am, weighed 8lbs 8oz… it’s insane!

    A treat to look at! I know what you mean about log cabins, they seem easy but can be very time consuming and tedius to produce. This is going to be a fabulous quilt.
