Happy Birthday Michelle and Ryan

For Michelle (March 19)

Somehow I missed posting for Michelle’s birthday, although I did make and send her a card. Michelle’s card is from the 1880 Sampler quilt-along I am participating in. When I first decided to make this quilt I wanted to use my 1930’s reproduction fabrics. But for the first two blocks I forgot I was going to do that and used some of my other scraps. This was one of the “oops” blocks.

For Ryan (March 31)

Ryan’s card is also from the same series. The blocks are quick to make (usually) although they involve some small pieces. I’ll be making two of each of the blocks from now on so I’ll always have a card top ready!
