I haven't accomplished much since the last blog.. at the sew in last weekend, I made ONE block and it was a tiny one. No pic, sorry.
I don't remember what happened Sun-Tue. Yesterday, we paid bills and got groceries - there's a day shot. I was so worn out, there was no way I was going to get any sewing done.
But... today I did... only two blocks,
but that means I only have eight more and I'll be ready to sew the top of the third(and final) BB quilt top. Maybe I'll be able to get it loaded onto Mo'e on Sunday and might get some quilting done before Christmas Eve, but the finishing will have to wait until at least the 27th. Our wedding anniversary is on the 26th and we're going out for dinner - SEZ ME! lol
Both blocks were appliqued and neither one was all that simple to do. It was worth it, though - they are not perfect, but darned close enough. The rest of the blocks should be a lot easier; there might be some more applique' but it will be the verse blocks onto background squares and that's a lot easier.
I'm getting a little worried about what I'm going to use for sashing and outer borders. I have enough yardage of one gray print but I don't think I want to use that. I think I have some yardage of the white mini polka dots ( like behind the Jesus Saves letters and the violin above) and that might work. I really need to get around and decide what I want to do.
In the meantime, I'm going to call it a night and go read for awhile.
take care....
