I lost a week in February some how. I pulled the pinks and organized the blue scraps but somehow didn't get any pink work done until this past week. Temecula Quilt Company posted a mini Valentine quilt this week. What a great way for me to get started on pink this month.
Pink kisses, red hugs and a little bit of chocolate. Notice the little flowers in the binding - this little mini has it all! It was a fun project to do and created just the right atmosphere when I hosted a group of fellow quilters on Friday morning.
I also finished the boxy star block for the month. I started making these last year and decided to continue in 2015 so I'd have 24 blocks for a good sized quilt. I'm playing with the placement of the fabrics again this month. There are only four pinks instead of the eight in last year's pink block.
Don't you just love the hotness of the pink. We sure need the warmth of the pink this month. We set a new low temperature record on Friday, minus 28.9 Celsius, breaking the 1899 record. Brr! It was chilly Friday morning.
The December pattern offered by my guild was for "One Stick at a Time" and I finally finished the flimsy. It has a peachy pink in it so I thought I'd share the finish with you.
I'm hoping to have a little more time to quilt next week. Marley and Bear Paw are first on my list, then some fun with strings. Check in with
soscrappy to see what others have finished this week.

Great projects! I love the Valentine's mini...so cute!
Such wonderful diversity of pink!
Wonderful! I love the boxy star block.
You've done a lot though. I copied the pattern for the hugs and kisses, and that's as far as it got! I love the chocolates in between the kisses; your quilt makes me think of those chocolates with cherry liqueur inside!
I love your little valentines quilt. It's so cute!! And your pink block is wonderful. Congrats on a finished flimsy too.
Just love your little hugs, kisses and chocolate quilt. All that is good in one quilt.
Adorable take on Hugs and Kisses. Love your cans prints.
I think I may have commented on your boxy stars before - love it. I say that every month. LOL. But its true. I also like the One Stick at a Time quilt. Great work.
I remember your boxy stars! They are my favorites. One Stick at a Time is really nice.
What a cute little mini. Chocolate was just the right touch!
The Valentine mini turned out beautifully! So did your Boxy Star block and the One Stick at a Time. Looks like your week was spent "in the pink of things".
I love the hugs and kisses and bits of chocolate in a quilt! And kudos on completing the flimsy. :- )
Glad the hot pink is keeping you warm. Looks like a great variety of pinks in your star block to me.
Cute mini quilt. I love pink, too.
Be safe and stay warm.
Love your chocolate hugs and kisses!
And such a cool corner block you made for the QPOM!
