Fun with Quilt Blocks!

I have recently started getting into making wonky house quilt blocks due to a swap I've been participating in on Swap-bot.com, called the "BOM Wonky House Block Swap."  So far I've participated in two of the Wonky House Block Swaps this year, and am really loving how fun these blocks are to make!  Of course, they are paper pieced, so it takes some patience to make them, but they are so adorable when they're finished!!

Here's the two I've made so far...

This year has been busy for me...
I haven't had a lot of time to spend in my sewing room the past couple of months,
so unfortunately I've got a lot of UFO's piled up. 
About all I've had time for was a quilt block here and there.
So here's a few more blocks I've managed to squeeze in since the beginning of 2015:

 "Butterfly in the Sky"

"Let Them Eat Cake"
Snapshots QAL: Block 1


"Sew On & Sew On"
Snapshots QAL: Block 2


"Put the Kettle On"
Snapshots QAL: Block 3

"The Penny Arcade"
Pat Sloan's 2015 Vacation Time QAL: Block 4

 
 "The Beach Bag"
Pat Sloan's 2015 Vacation Time QAL: Block 5

"Summer Nights"
Pat Sloan's 2015 Vacation Time QAL: Block 6

"The Hot Dog Stand"
Pat Sloan's 2015 Vacation Time QAL: Block 7

And although I posted about the first 3 Vacation Time blocks in a previous post,
here's a reminder of what those first three blocks look like...

Block 8 just came out on August 1st, so I have yet to make that one!
