Southern Notes was so fast and easy, kind of a welcome break.

Gloomy Prospects, Feeding the Rebels, Draft Threat
Love Gloomy Prospects, which is green and black. Nice warm colours in Feeding the Rebels, at least that is what I thought.
Phew!
I know it has been a long time since I have uploaded any new photos of the Civil War Diary Quilt, but I have been a little busy.
A temporary full time job, coupled with my music students may have kept me from blogging, but it didn't keep me from quilting.
I have managed to at least keep up with my club and am now about half done my blocks. I have some sashing pieces cut out, but haven't sewed any rows yet.
New pictures are coming soon- hopefully they will turn out better than the last set.

Sorrow and Greenfield and Stockton
Well, I haven't had much time lately to do any quilting, thanks to a new job reporting for the local weekly newspaper . That development, coupled with a frustrating error on my latest block, robbers, has discouraged me from blogging.
I feel better now, so here are the next two blocks: Greenfield and Stockton and Sorrow.
I honestly love Sorrow, I think it is the star- I always love stars and think this one is very striking. Greenfield and Stockton is nice, but I wish I would have used one contrasting colour. Also, my pattern had six strips, not five- weird!

The next four blocks.
Hungry Soldiers, Battle of Springfield, Rachel's Frustrations, Special Blessings
The red and white block (Battle of Springfield) is my favourite block so far!

The first four blocks
The first four blocks of my epic quilt include: Alarming Conditions (which should not have been completed first, as it was the hardest yet), Oath of Allegiance, Conscript Law and Anxieties.
Anxieties is one of my favourites so far ( I have completed 24 to date). I love the striking colour combination.
