Miss Luella (my featherweight) and I went a little crazy in Aunt Millie's Closet. I was trying to stretch myself with some creative fabric placement. I played with 2.5 inch squares until I was dizzy. At some point I just had to bite the bullet and sew!
I'm also sewing blocks with Pam Kitty Morning fabric for a separate quilt. Can a person have too many Great Grannies? I don't think so!
After all this sewing with vibrant color, I think I'll be ready to sew a low volume quilt.

I am SO GLAD to find your blog! Your quilt creations are fabulous! I'm putting your blog on my blog's side bar right now! I am resisting doing these blocks because I promised myself I would finish my UFO Project before I started anything new...but it's killing me..heh heh. I love your blocks and love all of Lori Holt's fabrics. Have a great week!

Oh...love all your blocks. they're so beautiful.
I love the vibrant colors. I am doing a more subtle great granny for our bedroom (don't want to scare my husband out of there) but the next one will definitely be more fun.
gorgeous!!!
You have a knack for pretty placements. I think I'm going to have to look up some Sew Cherry...looks like a line for me, too.
I'd say from the looks of your blog that you are quite an amazing quilter as well!
Your blocks look great! and no, I don't think we can ever have too many grannies : )
They're gorgeous!!!!
You're block are soo pretty!! :) :) Hope you have a lovely week! xo Holly
Thanks for stopping in and commenting on my blog. I have only been crocheting for two years but these African flower hexies are easy. I used Heidi Bear's tutorial for them.
Love your great grannies. I am making this quilt too but mine is being made in half the size as a doll quilt.

These are wonderful great granny square blocks!! Love all the fabric combinations you have going on. I have only made one of these blocks so far (as a test) but just received my fabric order so need to get started. I also ordered some of that Aunt Millie's Closet. So cute!
Love your pink and blue Great Granny's! What a great (and thoughtful) blog name!
I love these! I signed up for the Sew Along and am sad to say - not put in a stitch yet! Yikes! Love yours ;)
Oh - you have cought the bug too!
