The Jacob's Ladder Quilt A Long that I joined has officially kicked off, thanks to Freda ~ our wonderful hostess. I've learned so much from her in recent weeks with ample encouragement all along the way.
Today I have 2 blocks to show, and thankfully, there's only a teeny tiny minor issue with my machine...I'll figure it out eventually, but for now I'll tolerate it.

Here's how they'll look together in a quilt. The colors didn't photograph just right, but I love any shade of pink!
We are to make 1 or 2 blocks each week, more or less if we like. I'm told that the quilt police won't be around to count, and glad to hear it because I just cain't stop sewing toward my first quilt!
I already have 6 other blocks, some of which I posted previously, but I've decided to use them in a separate quilt because the measurements weren't working out right. The cut sizes have been adjusted, and these 2 blocks worked out much better.

You can view photos of other participants' blocks at the JL QAL on Flickr.
I plan to use plenty of these lovelies in some more blocks.
