sewin' along...

first, can i say it again?  PT is sooo under-rated.  an extremely painful shoulder has resolved AND a few new modalities have improved balance and walking immensely.  the shoulder was part residual from fall and part sewing setup that has been tweaked. ***  busy weekend--farmer's market, some house chores, exercise and lots of sewing helped me avoid news!  whipped up more of the christmas broken dishes blocks...

black/white print almost gone...have a few ideas on how to use them.  then, made a few of the 6" churn dash blocks....will need 26 and had planned them for july, but here's a preview....

don't look like much at this point....but they look good along side the little bright ones...yesterday went back to 'midnight' border blocks.  had hoped this would be a june flimsy and still might be....

they are fun to make and a bunch are cut and ready to assemble.  love working with those happy kaffe fassett fabrics.  *** the monthly mini ready to bind, today maybe, and the squares placemat.  with 3 days left to the month, the batik splash won't get finished, but close.  and before friday, the border on the gift quilt will be done as well.  *** the weather is hot and humid and gas tank nearly empty until payday friday, which is the day maryland gas tax goes up another 7 cents.  no holiday plans at all but might veer off the chicken for a pizza!
