Thank you to each and everyone of you, my dear readers. You have encouraged me, challenged me, laughed, and shared with me. I pray God’s richest blessings over each and every one of you.

Yes, I know I have an unfinished project, but this has been calling to me.

I cut out these 3 1/2” squares some time ago. They are all from my stash of Denise Schmidt fabrics.

I wasn’t sure how big I wanted to make the blocks.

I think I want them pretty big.

I love the first layout. I’m not so sure about this second one. But it is fun to play.

Have a great day!

I left this upon the design wall for several days.

And an idea finally came to me when I came across this toile.

One border is added and I have one to go.

Have a great day!

My 4 patch is finally quilted.

This is the pantograph I used.

The machine stitching on the binding is done and today, I hope to get the hand stitching done.

I did finally finish knitting my dishcloth. Far from perfect, but my dishes won’t notice.

Before I go, I have to let you in on this deal from AccuQuilt .

Have a great day!

The cleaning and sorting continues. I love this little rocker that holds hand sewing tools. I’ve had it forever.

I got a new kitchen sink this week. I love it!

My Christmas decorating is done. This is it. All of it. One piece.

Though I could probably manage a tree like this.

And a bit of scientific research for you. I found it on the internet, so it must be true.

Finally, a verse I’ve been pondering this week.

Have a great day!

I made all my four patches after posting about this last week.

And I cut my triangles and squares for the next part.

Ummmm….. notice a problem here? Apparently, it helps if you follow directions. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Maybe it’s another design opportunity?

Stay tuned…

I was in the mood for something different. I’ve had this layer cake hanging around for a while and it was time to use it.

I cut it into quarters like this.

Then I used my 8” QST die for precise cutting. There was very little waste.

One down, 41 more to go.

Have a great day!

Ah, yes…never wax poetic about hardships and opportunities…..it will come back to bite you.

I started sewing rows together before putting everything on the design wall only to discover I still didn’t have enough blocks. And I had already used every last scrap of the gray in the corners. I do not want to put the lighter Star/moon fabric here.

So plenty of time was spent digging through stash to find a substitute.

Moving right along…..

Have a great day!
