I was wandering the internet and found this site. Twenty 12 inch blocks from Nancy's Notions. Simple one page directions that can be printed or downloaded all in one place. No new patterns but having a nice selection is a winner for me. I saved them all to a file on my laptop. https://nancysnotions.com/quilt-alon...ake-a-sampler/ As the name indicates they are from a sew along sampler but just perfect for us.

Thank you, WMUT. Those are all familiar and long loved blocks that I have in my Around the Block books, but since not everyone has those books, there they are!
Moda also has a bunch of free 12" blocks. They call them Moda Blockheads... and they do sewalongs with them. I believe they are on BH6 now, or later, but before that there were BH1, BH2, BH3, etc., and the patterns are still online for you to grab.
Today we tried to buy new phones and a new phone plan and were shocked at the prices! We could see it wasn't going to be a quick process. We looked at Verizon and they require a 3 YEAR contract. When did that become a thing? We have never signed more than a 2 year contract with anybody else. Wish we weren't so dependent on the darn things!

LAF thank you for my fun farm block
Sewbiz 2 years ago we both purchased new phones. It was a very time consuming. I don’t remember how many years our contract is for Verizon. Since we have had them for over 20 years we will probably just stick with them
Did find 4 or 5 different brown fabrics while shopping today and some cow fabric just jumped into my basket. The cow fabric should go with my other cow fabric that I sent out with the farm fabric
Then dh called me over and was so excited they had aboriginal fat quarters all the way from Australia. Shocked me since is favorite color is white. Now to find just the right pattern.
The picture is from the quilt museum “ food section”. It totally reminded me of Ibex and Sewbiz’s past costal themes

Home from retreat. Took three blocks Boom Blocks, started three blocks, finished none. Retreat is not a good place for me to work on blocks I guess. I need to have my stash close at hand just in case it is needed. Yes, it was needed. I did make 5 pillow cases for donation and 40+ four patch square in a square blocks. Oh and I have half of the needed blocks for the graduation quilt that is on deck to be be finished next.
Guess I should unpack and replace all of the tools etc. that I traveled with. Then a little snack and off to sleep in my own bed. There's no place like home, there's now place like home, there's no place like home. ZuZu is ready for some cuddles too.
