Amy's BOM and a Friendship Block

I didn't do alot today. I really couldn't get motivated. I did three blocks, watched John Wayne on TV and cleaned house. Kind of a blah day cause it's still so hot here. I wanted to go outside but it was still so hot, I couldn't stand it. I am definitely ready for cooler weather....

I did two of the August blocks for Amy's BOM. I am really pushing the time limit on this one. Normally, I do these blocks the first part of the month but I really procrastinated.

Here's Block 1: Maltese Star

Block 2: Friendship Star
This one took me awhile to do. It wasn't hard but sure had a lot of pieces...

This is a friendship block for Marcella in my Sew What's Group. This was a fun and easy block from Quilter's Cache website....
