Little of this...little of that

Last night I started working on the Countdown to Christmas quilt ... only 25 blocks and each finish at 4"... I'm going to work on one a day.  Here's the first one.



After the Countdown to Christmas ( yes, I know I'm a month late - or eleven months early) I started working on the block below right... LOTS of teeny cuts that required an exacto knife.  It's not fused to the background yet.. was trying to decide placement.

Today, I worked on the other block ( two more to follow).  This one wasn't as bad; not so many teeny tiny cuts.  


Then I worked on my Countdown to Christmas block...

I wanted to start on the BOM for fatcatpatterns.com, but couldn't find fabric that had enough yardage for the background.  A couple of fabrics would have been perfect, but there wasn't enough of either one.  Guess I'll have to go buy some - arghh... I didn't want to have to buy any more for awhile.

 Oh wait!  I just remembered the fabric I got the other day - there's one there that will do... not perfect, but it will work; I may even end up liking it more than my first picks.

Ok, time to fix dinner.... then fold clean laundry while I watch whatever's on tv tonight.

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...
