Cubes, oh yea!

Saturday was the second session of both cube classes. I was excited to see that all the ladies in the Hollow Cube Too class had been working on their cubes, so we could really get a good idea of what they would look like.
 We cut the background pieces and saw those cubes really stand out!
 Dianne mixed her colors and is using a dark purple for her background. I forgot to get a pic when she had it all up there.
 Ida Mae is using the polka dotted black for her background....it really brings out the colors in the quilt.
 If you look closely, you can see that she switched out just one wall on some of her pink and green cubes....can you find them?
 The Tumbling Block class went well too, many pretty colors and interesting designs.  We figured out a great way to get an entire vertical row off the design wall to sew....just tape it! Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures until we had taped the rows together.....they both promised that they would bring them back when finished!
Mary is using a random layout, should be really pretty!

I spent all day yesterday cleaning....I went under and over all surfaces in the kitchen.... it looks so good I hate to cook and dirty it up again. This past month has been so busy that I haven't done a good job of deep cleaning. I cleaned the whole downstairs, except I forgot the ceiling fans! I still need to tackle them and the upstairs bathroom, but it will wait for another day.

Great boxes! How fun that Ida changed out the wall on some of her pink and green boxes. The quilters are going to have great quilts when they are finished.
