New Blogger!

I was reading Libby's blog today and discovered that one of the BIG NAMES in the world of primitive quilting, has started a blog of her own! HAPPY DAY!  Cheri Payne has her own distinctive style that really appeals to me and I have made several of her projects from the many books and pamphlets that I own. She's only been blogging a few days, but I look forward to getting to know her better through her posts. And I sure hope she shares pictures of her home so we can see how she displays her wonderful creations! She is sharing a block-by-block project called soot&ashes so we can sew along with her if we want to. Boy, do I want to! This afternoon I whipped up all three blocks that she's done so far - I'm using reds instead of the blues that she chose - since I have no idea what the finished quilt will look like, I sure hope it will work! It's kinda like a mystery quilt, huh? The blocks are only 5" so they work up fast! I hope nothing gets me distracted from checking her blog every day for new instructions! Here's what I have worked up so far.......
