I am so happy with my progress on my Simple folk quilt. Over these past three weeks I was able to sew quite a bit. I found that the small blocks fit perfectly in my pocket so I could make a stitch or two while I was waiting for a show while on my vacation.
I was able to finish Mr Horse. He holds the prize for being the last of the animal blocks for this quilt. Yea!!
Now I am working on the eight wreath blocks. I am grateful for my trip because now I have six of them done!
I really like how easy these were compared to the animals. I also like the elegance they are going to add to the quilt.
It has been a great three weeks! I’m so glad you stopped by today. If you have a moment, you may want to head over and see what the other quilters are stitching up!

It's a T-Sweets day! 
Such a lovely colour palette! I’m looking forward to seeing how everything comes together, and I’m guessing it won’t be long now.

I think I have a fat quarter of that bluish rain drop fabric! You must be so glad to have finished Mr. Horse, he was such a challenging block with those tiny pieces. Your applique has reached professional level! You also got enough done for the two of us!
