from Shipshewana to Lucy Boston POTC

My year-long POTC journey -

my one-block-a-week-this-year goal
is nearing the end.
I only have a few blocks left to make for my

 Lucy Boston - 

Patchwork Of The Crosses quilt!!

And if I haven't miscounted in my block-making,

I should be finished in mid January!

 I think I only need the following blocks:

• two blocks for the last weeks of November
• four blocks for the four weeks of December
• two more blocks for the beginning of January.

So a little addition to the stash was in order to finish the blocks!
Of course, while retreating in Shipshewana,
I visited all the local quilt shops.
(You would too, wouldn't you?)
And I picked up a few (mostly) fat quarters
(specifically for POTC) at each shop.

See this picture?:

pinks, corals, some greens and browns
for my Lucy - POTC

 AND this picture?:

blues, with a little coordinating brown
for my Lucy - POTC

That seems like it should be plenty to
make only eight more blocks, don't you think?

I continued unpacking my retreat 'stuff'...
digging deeper into my travel project bag,
and what do you think I found???
MORE fabric that I had purchased for my POTC!:

So, see THIS picture?:

more blues, pinks and corals...
yes, I liked the pretty blue stripe/scallop (top, right)
so much that I purchased it twice!
All for my Lucy - POTC

mulberries, greens and some great blue stripes
All for my Lucy - POTC

The four pictures above,
show my addition of stash fabric.

From Shipshewana, Indiana...
to Lucy Boston, Patchwork of the Crosses.

Confession:

IF each of these pieces was only a quarter yard

they'd add up to 15 - yes, FIFTEEN yards!!!

Guess I now have enough to finish those 8 blocks,

don't you think? :)
