these are the 2 latest of the farmer's wife sew-along blocks....both paper pieced as i wouldn't have done them any other way. the 365 is up to date as well. finished all the pink reel blocks i could, now waiting on getting more pinks from the big stash in storage. tomorrow hoping to baste a couple of things for quilting. the 12 days of christmas blocks also on the list, as this would give me a quick finish. will also be cutting more scrappy bricks for that project. working on several things at once usually gives me lots of finishes at once. when i was a single parent had to juggle several things at once, so it's a method now used for my sewing projects. silly me thought life would be less complicated with no children to care for, a house to maintain and 2 jobs....not sure what happened or if i'll ever get the satisfaction of an explanation, but thankful God gives me the strength and perseverance to keep on keeping on....quilting that is!
OMG, no wonder you are paper-piecing these blocks with such tiny intricate pieces. They look marvelous! And your Virginia Reel or Snail's Trail pinks are so happy-looking. I admire your quilting as well as your perseverance skills.
