sewing detour
the constant glare of purple resulted in my eyes drooping, so i took a tiny detour and assembled these chunky churndash blocks. a few years ago i participated in a swap and made about 24 of these, sent them off and never got anything back! not sure what happened but i found these leftovers and so decided to make them up. at some point i'll make a lot more and put together a flimsy to tie and donate, probably. or, i might keep it because don't ya know, i love scrappy quilts! **** basking in march weather here in late january; the calendar means nothing at all this winter! i'm only hoping it doesn't turn on us come june/july/august. **** just about over my cold and so hoping to get into my browns/muslin project soon and maybe those little houses too...aren't they adorable?

Too much purple can do that to you, even though I love it!
ReplyDeleteHow disappointing about that block swap!
This is the second Chunky Churndash I have seen on blogs lately. It is a fun scrappy pattern!
Oh, no. Have you been bitten by the construction bug, too? Stay back--I'm hoping I won't catch it! I.Don't.Need.Another.Project!!
A "sewing detour" is a perfect term for switching projects when you need a bit of a change.
ReplyDeleteI love scrappy and the churn dashes that you show are great fun to look at with just a bit of Christmas peeking at us. You have a good attitude to not be still cussing out the other swappers! LOL I'm not that charitable. I'd make voodoo dolls of them and use them as pincushions.
i came across her blog and contacted her x2 with no response at all; it was a futile effort so dropped it and her
