Play Time



All bindings are sewn to their respective projects and two done with a third 3/4's - I NEED TO PLAY!  I did up the 11th block for the Blogger's block along.


The Mini Quilt Along with Moose on the Porch - 'Simply Charming Minis' by Konda Luckau.  The first one presented by MaMa Sparks was the 'Mosaic' - just 13".  I need to deside how to quilt.  Scraps of Shot Cotton left from the last FQ Quilt Along and pulled a 1.5" scrap strip from the tub. 


And this I did a few days ago - the next block for the 'How Far Will You Go' quilt along.

Ok - I did get my PLAY fix and need to get back to business. There are a lot of new buttons on the side bar you might like to check out.  Tomorrow I need to take an 'outdoors' break to pick the last of the tomatoes and pull up the plants, we are frosting at night soon.  The greens will ripen on the kitchen window.

CLOSING THOUGHT

"There ought to be gardens for all months in the year,
in which, severally, things of beauty may be then in season."
