When I excavated the sewing room I found this fabric which had been cut into a kit for a kid's quilt. I started piecing a few sqs a day as I'm busy with my paid job at the moment.I must get some more kits cut from my stash as it does make it easier to get some blocks sewn together quickly. I usually cut a few and then prepare some more later.
I guess that's a habit from my days of mainly hand appliqueing blocks.
I get inspiration from reading other blogs and see that some of you also prepare kits, so I think I'll get some made up when I get time.
This fabric was donated and will be made into a quilt for donation. Off to work again. Hugs JJ

I love these little windmill blocks - I have the template too but I wasn't particularly fond of the quilt I ended up with....one of those designs that didn't quite work so one of these days I'll try again.
Yep, kitting up quilts is a great timesaver for when you're working and need something quick to sew. I like to cut for two or three different projects when I'm in the mood, then I can sew the blocks in the morning before I go to work.
Hope you're enjoying blogging, it's just like keeping a diary and you met the nicest people!
I see you just started your blog. It's very nice, and fun reading what going on so far away! I too have this little windmill templates, but I haven't tried them yet.
