I have no idea how this memory came up this week.. it might have been from a comment I read at my online group.. whatever made it happen.. Oh My Stars! is our 7th blocks in my Grandma's Kitchen sew along... and READ TO THE END for the Challenge announcement.
I'm so enjoying your great memories!! One fun memory is a 'saying'. Often families have one that is passed down from generation to generation. And sometimes Grandmas have to have a saying that is a 'code word' for when they might want to say what they really think.. like oh crap! instead.. they may have said, 'oh dear'.. or 'oh my stars!' ... because 'little cornstalks have big ears'... did your family say that one?
What did your grandma, your mom, you .. or a special person say when they needed a 'code word'?
I am in full swing with TWO colorways.. woohoo! 2nd colorway is my Sunday Drive..
I am using these design boards to keep track. It really helps me so I don't twist & turn pieces by accident
I think Stars are perfect for anyone, who doesn't love stars! And this drop shadow setting is fun to showcase the blocks. The pattern for the layout is IN The block pattern you download below
Watch my quick Facebook LIVE videos I did before I was done with the block.. fun fun!

Everytime I ask ask the name for the next block.. there are a TON of people who say 'Grandma's Apron'. This got me to thinking... do you wear an apron, make them? give them as gifts? I did a poll to find out See the POLL HERE and people shared photos, so fun!
Why yes ... you not only wear aprons, but give them and love them!
So I think we'll have an apron challenge! One of the blocks will be named Grandma's apron and on that day the challenge will start. There WIll be a prize.. maybe more than one... So here is what you do now
- BUY an Apron pattern like this fun online class by my friend Betz.. those aprons in the photo above are the ones you learn to do in her online workshop which is ONLY 9.99 for the video + Pattern.
- Or buy a pattern you prefer, maybe it's for guy.. or a child like this cross back that has both adult & child.
- Get some cutie patootie fabric.. and be ready to rumble some apron love!
