Already 4 finished

Hi girls,


I have already 4 blocks finished and the next one
is waiting to be applicated. I'm having fun doing
the applications. It's nice to look every day on the
blog to see what everybody is doing and to see
all of the progress.






I'm not very sure about the jeans, maybe I'll make another 
one??? What do you think???
I hope that everybody is having as much fun as me, making
the quilt and reading the blog.
Have a nice day or night,
Martine

Thanks Martine, just starting the day here...
I love all your blocks...I'm thinking of doing my jeans in a more traditional shade or fabric..but yours are nice...sort of 70s vintage.
