winnie the pooh Stack-n-whack quilt

So this Easter weekend I got my Winnie the Pooh Stack-n-Whack quilt near complete. I cut and attached all the sashing and cornerstones around the blocks, then sewed the pieces together to form stripes and rows.

My mom helped me get the batting and backing onto the quilt and safety pin it together so now all I have to do is quilt it and do the binding and I am finished with my first quilt.
I have three pictures showing two of the blocks: then the finished quilt top.

Stack N Whack Hawaiian Style

I am currently sewing together my second stack-n-whack quilt top. It's Hawaiian fabric I got from the clearance bin at Hobby Lobby.

Here are a few pictures:

Here is my workspace as I work with quilting. I transform my kitchen into the cutting area and the dining area into my sewing and ironing stations. Works pretty well (unless someone wants to eat)!
Here is a picture of my pattern for the Hawaiian Stack-N_Whack. It is pinned down under four layers of the same fabric. Takes the most time to do this.


Here is my first block sewn together. Neat huh? I am excited to get the rest finished. Off I go...

More pictures later!
