Moving right along here!

I decided to add the dashing to separate the blocks.

I finished the top and got the quilting started!


Have a great day!

Mr. Wonderful and I finally got outside! First, we went up north of Cave Creek and went looking for Jasper. This was one of the roads to the rock hunting area. Not bad, just a bit rocky.

Oscar was totally up for it.

We met with success! I now have lots of beautiful jasper to play with.

We saw lots of flowers thanks to the recent monsoon rains.

Next we headed south a bit.

We visited some Hohokam ruins. It was a bit of a hike, but well worth it.



I do not know how this huge, heavy cactus hangs into the side of this boulder!

The scenery was incredible.


Have a great day!
My latest read.

I love these!

Yes.

A recent rain caused my cactus to bloom!

Have a great day!
Done! The name comes from the African fabrics I used and the potato chip block.

I kept the quilting simple so it wouldn’t compete with the fabrics. I’m loving the solid green background.


Here is the backing.

I used backing leftovers for the binding.

These prints are so fun!

Have a great day!
Before I get into the review of this months projects, did you know it is National Black Dog Day?

Apparently, black dogs are the least likely to get adopted. We love our black dog!

I just had three small finishes this month.



The last one is my favorite.
Have a great day!
I pulled out this project from the guild UFO exchange.

I received the five blocks above plus all this fabric.

I think I may separate the blocks with sashing strips.

I need to figure out how big to cut the edges triangles.
Have a great day!
I finished my blocks!

And even got this loaded on the frame.

Quilting has begun.

Have a great day!
I’ve been unmotivated since returning from my trip. A rainy day helped get me in the mood to sew a bit.

These are real blocks, not an app generated collage.

I think I need about 20 more blocks to get this to a donation size.

I’m quite liking that green background.
Have a great day!
This is so true.

My Pretty Penny.


Did you see this in the news?

Yes, it’s a real story!
I brought this set home from Wisconsin. It belonged to my mom.

A nice drive in the little car.

Have a great day
