Lollipop


I found the next steps in the Stonefield quilt and the blocks all required lots of appliqué of small pieces. Turns out I had already finished making the easiest blocks for the month. So I looked at this Lollipop block...it looked like a circle with two strips of rick rack sewn across it. Then I realized that it wasn't rick rack, but fabric that had been cut like rick rack. Then I remembered that I live at a time when there are gazillions of print fabrics many of which can pass for a lollipop. 


Then I interviewed Molly for my new podcast Diatribe. She has become quite a chatterbox. Here she is hanging out in the empty shelves over the refrigerator. 


And everyday I convert some 4X4 postage blocks into 4X8...and I don't forget to twirl the seams.

  1. Is the conversion of the postage blocks due to the rie in postage?
    Maybe Molly is trying to tell you something about your empty refrigerator.
    Cute lollipop block.

  2. Was Molly playing hide and seek with Buddy again? (I'm picturing Buddy wandering around unable to quit because he can't remember the words to "ollie ollie oxen free" and Molly snickering quietly)
