I wanted to post a picture of the quilt I made for Catherine and Philip for their wedding.   I ended up having surgery the day before the wedding, so I didn't get to travel to Georgia.   Fortunately my mom and my two oldest went and brought me back a piece of cake.

So my big news is that I'm recovering from surgery.  I had my galbladder removed last week and it has really hit me hard.    I told my DH that it has not been nearly as much fun as I thought it would be.   I had thought that I would be sewing, watching the Bollywood movies that I stocked piled, but NO.   I can barely even stay awake longer than a few hours.   When I get to feeling better, I'll post pictures of the projects I was able to complete before surgery...

I love Marcia Hohn's site The Quilterscache.     I have spent hours searching the block patterns, sometimes hunting for a specific block or just browsing.
One of my favorites is the Depression Block:

I have hopes of one day making a gorgeous scrap quilt with this block.

I have such an affinity for Half Square Triangle quilts.    I have a Fat Quarter Bundle of Anna Maria Horner's Little Folks Voile waiting for me to cut up and make a fantastic quilt- inspired by Megan at http://lucyandnorman.blogspot.com/2010/06/little-folks-quilt-love.html
What's not to love?
