Riley Blake Design challenge block "Argyle Square" by Melanie Collette of Hello Melly Designs
Last week I had a very basic list:
✅1. Wedding Quilt - Not much done but a little bit of progress
✅2. RBD challenge block - Done and pictured above
Along with two doctor appointments this past week, we also made a trip to pick up my repaired (and soon to be sold) Janome, then over to help our daughter do a few things at her house and take our granddaughter a birthday gift for her 6th birthday. My husband purchased a popcorn popper for all of them for their new place! The first batch was a success. She moved only 3 miles from her ex to stay close to our granddaughter's school, and so far shared custody is going well.
This week will be more of the same:
1. Wedding quilt
2. RBD block
3. Pieces in the Garden Bachelor blocks
And now for the exciting part - you are invited to join in and share your goals and crections for the week - crafts, sewing, quilting, tablescapes, recipes, books, photography - you name it, we want to see it! After you link up, go visit other blogs and make a new friend, get inspired, or offer support. If you have any issues accessing Marsha's Spot, just copy the text below and paste it into your browser:

Such a sweet block that you completed this past week. Gorgeous fabrics. Such a nice popcorn maker. I bet it was yummy and the kiddos enjoyed it. Have a wonderful week and thank you for hosting the link party.

Congrats on all the progress for last week. The Riley Black block turned out beautifully. Happy stitching this week.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting the party Linda. My DH would enjoy that popcorn popper, he likes his popcorn at night while watching TV.
ReplyDeletePretty RBD block! Those are such unique designs. Love the popcorn maker, too - what a fun gift for your daughter and the kiddos! We had one at the school where I taught. The kids loved "earning" a popcorn party! Glad things are going well for them!
ReplyDeleteYour Riley Blake block is pretty in those colors! Now that is a fun popcorn maker! I'm sure it will be enjoyed!
ReplyDeleteI'm really glad the shared custody is going well, that is so good for the children. I like the fabrics you've used in your Riley block, happy stitching!

ReplyDeleteHi Linda! Thanks for the linky party today! It has some interesting thumbnails that I just HAVE to check out.

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteYour Riley Block is very pretty, love the color
combo. I love popcorn...what a great idea, buying
a popcorn popper. Have a great day!
That popcorn popper is awesome! I would love to have one of those! I’ve seen the small table top ones, but I wouldn’t want to be bothered with one of those. What a fabulous gift!
ReplyDeleteLove the red popcorn Piper, so cool!!
ReplyDeleteYour new RDB is beautiful, Linda!
I love your RBC block, after having unpicked mine a bit I appreciate looking at yours, again I love your fabric choice. Wow that is some popcorn maker.
ReplyDeleteOh how I would love a pop corn popper like that! Clay would eat a batch a day! Glad all things are going well. If you get more rain than you need send us some down here in the desert! I like your block! Hugs
ReplyDeleteHi Linda. Keeping it simple is often a good thing. Love the popcorn popper idea.
ReplyDeleteI love your argyle square. You’re using such a soothing palette. And what fun—a popcorn machine for your grands!
ReplyDeleteThank you Mary! I hope my nephew thinks it's soothing and masculine. ;) The Littles LOVE the popper.
DeleteGreat little block! And what a novelty for your grands to have their own popcorn popper! Movie time will be special at their house! Or is it for after school snacks!?
ReplyDeleteI love the colors of the block. The popcorn popper machine - well - heck that is one nice grandpa. You are so luckky to have them living close.
ReplyDeleteThanks you Sandy! Yes we are SO glad we moved up to north Texas to be closer to our daughter. An hour away is much better than 3-1/2 hours away!
DeleteI love your block, Linda. That popcorn popper is pretty awesome! I know they'll enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors (and the block pattern) for your argyle block. The popcorn popper looks like fun! Good luck this week and thank you for hosting!
ReplyDeleteThank you Peggy! I am enjoying those patterns very much. Hope you have a great weekend!
