April Friendship Blocks

We are a little late this time swapping our friendship blocks for April. Yesterday we met at the White Horse Resturant for lunch and swapped our blocks - good food, good friends, good conversation and good blocks make for some good times! So, here they are.......


First we have Carol's Easter Bunny looking quite lovely in this floral blue. Carol's applique is just beautiful!


Cheryl is just sailing right along in her perfect strawberry sailboat. Over this year of swapping, she has become the accomplished paper piecer!


And last is my little blue bird of happiness. I just love blue birds and this one makes me think of the bird which sits in the tree outside my window at work and sings me a happy song just about every day, ALL day long.




May will be our last month to swap blocks. This has been so much fun each month and we get so excited to give our blocks to each other.

All three are WONDERFUL but I am especially partial to the bluebird! The bluebird is our Missouri state bird and occasionally we are lucky enough to spot one in our backyard. Nice job!

The bluebird is my favorite, too.
Seems like there was a White Horse restaurant in Ohio at one time. Anyhow, fun to go to lunch and exchange blocks. The little group I belong to made a block for each person's birthday one year. Was a fun exchange.

Lovely blocks this month Teresa. I especially like the cute little flower peeking out from under your bluebird!

I love the blocks - they're all so "spring-y".

Love the blocks! The boat reminds me of all the boats we see here in Florida!

I too love your bluebird block. What a neat swap! It will make a special quilt.
