Little House QAL - Block 7 - Little Town on the Prairie

It's been quite some time since my last Little House QAL update, but I am, finally, continuing on. I finished the rest of my blocks up through block 7, and I did everything except the applique for blocks 8 and 9.

And here it is! Block 7!

Little House QAL - Block 6 - The Long Winter

Today I bring you Block 6 of the Little House QAL. As has been the case with all the others, I've actually been making multiple blocks, and we'll see how they all get put together at the end, but I'm delaying a mention of more details for the sake of the pattern designer.

Little House QAL - Block 5 - By the Shores of Silver Lake

Today's post brings you Block 5 in this journey of the Little House QAL.

However, on an unrelated note, happy Stitches West, everyone! As this is published, I am likely finishing up my purchases at the amazing Stitches West, to be detailed in a later weekly post!

Little House QAL - Block 2 - Little Farmer Boy

Taking a step back in time, I bring you Block 2 of the Little House QAL, which I had put off due to some fabric decisions. Here I present to you the finished product!

Little House QAL - Block 3 - Little House on the Prairie

You might have noticed that I skipped Block 2 on this one - I'm still trying to decide on fabrics!

In the mean time, here's Block 3 of the Little Houe QAL!

Little House QAL - Fabric Change

Original Fabrics
A few weeks ago, I posted about starting the Little House QAL, and I left you with a picture of the fabrics I had ordered.













Well, I absolutely detest the base color on the right - according to the website, it was a deep brown, but it's certainly black in person. So, I ordered a replacement color - a brown with green speckles. It'll be a different effect, for sure, but I'm optimistic.

However, because I ordered this new fabric, I wasn't able to complete block 2 in time, since the fabric hadn't arrived yet. Instead, I leave you with this fabric update.

Little House QAL - Block 1 - Little House in the Big Woods

I've finished Block 1 of my Little House Quilt-Along. This block was posted on the class, and I'm not sure how much I can post about it, since it is a paid class, but I will say I'm excited to see what happens next! 


We made two types of this block, and different amounts of each type (again, I'm avoiding saying too much!).

Stay tuned for next week!

Little House QAL

Last year, I updated you as I participated in the Sophie's Universe Crochet-a-Long, put on by Dedri's blog over at Look At What I Made. I loved it. This year, I'm participating in something similar - A Quilt Along, put on by Ebony Love at LoveBug Studios. This will be the biggest quilt I've ever made, by an order of magnitude, and I still haven't the faintest idea how I'm going to quilt it.
I'm participating along with a few friends from home, and I'm very excited to see how all of ours turn out!

Here are the fabrics I'll be using. I'm not sure how I feel about the one in the front - it's supposed to be dark brown, but it's definitely black - so I might be switching it out. Either way, the first post is today, and I'm excited to get started!
