monday design wall
spent Easter sunday afternoon playing with betty and making headway on the civil war blocks....got these 4 done plus another is almost....
and let me tell you, "death penalty" is aptly named! happy with the result tho.... also on sunday went thru the remainder of the shelf stash and also the reds/greens/tans that were in shoeboxes and culled a few more weird 'will never use' prints....am quite happy with the result now that it is better suited for my likes. once the stove is cleaned will be ready for long summer days of sewing. again this year will be taking a maine vacation to fill my mom hugs tank, visit with my siblings and scarf down as much seafood as possible. we are both counting the days already and with may almost here, vacation isn't far beyond. now off to spend this day!

Ha! Got my stove cleaned this weekend :-) Like minds!
ReplyDeleteI'm eager for your vacation pictures. I live on the west coast but LOVE Maine! I live vicariously through other adventures. I only wish I could taste the lobsta too :-)
Vacations are such great things to look forward to, especially if that "mom hug" account needs replenishing. Your blocks look great-- glad that you persevered and toughed out the Death Penalty block, the results are worth it! Well done. These block names are interesting: "Bad Box"?
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look so good I thought they were pictures from the book at first. I'd like to see those weird "will never use" prints! They are probably ones I always use!
ReplyDeleteGlad you have some fun plans with family coming up. So great to have something you can look forward to.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, most of these blocks look like they would present challenges. You did a beautiful job. Are they foundation pieced, or regular piecing?
paper pieced....thus the messy floor...LOL!
