Happy Monday! I hope your week is getting off to a good start. I could use some caffeine if I'm being honest. But this cookie will have to do for right now. :) It's a fabric chocolate chip cookie!

Cookie quilt? I need to write some of these blocks into full patterns and put them in my shop. I really like this one! I think I'll do it! I had mocked one up and it was so cute! But it seemed weird for all of the cookies to be half eaten. So I'm still tweaking it. I'll show you the final design when I get it done. Would any of you be interested in a chocolate chip cookie quilt?
Where's the milk when you need it! Wait! I just remembered! There was a National Milk Day block. haha! Way back near the start of this project.
That's it for today. I'm off to tinker with the cookie quilt design.. I'll be back in a couple of days with the next block on my list. Next in line is a block that's for National Underwear Day. ha! Underwear has a National Day? The block turned out really cute though, I promise! I can't wait to share it!
Hope to see you then.
Happy Stitching!
xoxo,

P.S. I love to see blocks and quilts that are made with any of my patterns. If you make any and post on social media, please come find me in any of the places listed below, and tag me so I can see! :) If you're on YouTube, check out the short musical video tutorials of some of these blocks. I'm hoping they might inspire kids, or anyone really, to learn to sew. :) Plus, they're just fun to do.
I'm keeping all of these blocks organized on the National Days quilt blocks page *HERE*, if you're looking for any of the other 90 or so blocks I've posted so far. If you know someone who loves Minecraft, Pokemon, and or Harry Potter, check out these free sew alongs, too! :) And if you're looking for any of my print patterns, or other fun quilty gifts, check out my Etsy shop here. Be back soon!
