all those years of sewing mistakes came in handy today when i went to attach one side of this border...it was a skosh short but was able to ease enough to fit....and with that, these border pieces finally got used up and off the bulletin board. there was not enough to miter but i am satisfied with it, especially since every inch got used. these are not favorite colors of mine but found this pattern on quilterscache...a 16" block called 'firewheel'....and knew could find stash (understatement) to match the border colors. **** then whipped up these 3 blocks for guild winter swap, again, enough stash on hand, that hoping somebody will like. these 2 projects busted some entire small pieces of stash, which is how it usually goes.
with my christmas gift shopping completed, can continue to focus on the sewing to-do list. one is to baste that santa blocks wall piece with those red/green flying geese on the design wall! *** no snow yet here west of baltimore and exciting news in the paper this morning....next year's G-7 summit to be held at camp david, a mere 10 or so miles from here....fancy schmancy neighborhood!
