Catching Up

I've been busy making quilt blocks... apparently so busy that I didn't have time ( or the energy) to do my blog - for shame on me  LOL.

I did get behind on my BODs but when I got to three, I sat down and did all of them and have been able to keep up daily since then ( even if it's 1 am like it was last night).
 

the three above were done on the 13th

arghhhh  trying to figure out how to get my photos onto here without having to use my phone... there's supposed to be a program where I can automatically get them without having to download them here from my phone and then come on to my lap top to write the blog and arrange the photos.... does that make sense?  Heck, I'm confusing myself.







then this one the day before yesterday... along with the corn and leaves block on the right below... the pumpkin was done the day before ( still have to stitch down the vines but haven't decided how to do it - hand embroidery was suggested, but not sure I want to do that) These two are the Nov and Dec BOMs from the Autumn BOM that I'm doing with Shabby Fabrics.



Ok  then I started this beast last night... took about FOUR HOURS.. it's 12.5" x 12.5" .  This is the first block for the Murder Mystery BOM 2017 that I signed up for ( WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!?)

Finally about 1 a.m. I did my BOD... pic is dark but, oh well, I'm too frustrated right now to try and fix it.  It is what it is.
Still trying to decide what I'm going to work on at the sew in on Saturday; I know what I'm working on Friday - the string block quilt that's been patiently waiting in my bin.  Still have a couple of days to decide what to do on Saturday - I'd like to do a 'quickie' one that I can call done by at least the end of the weekend if not Saturday night.

Ok, I need to make some phone calls .... arghhh!!

What to work on next

 I finished the two gift quilts - and both have been delivered to a parent of the little girl recipient. I have the requested photo from one...
