a whole week has gone by and no posts? that's because most of my sewing has been on the secret gift...happy to say only 12 blocks more and assembling the top can begin. should get basted in july...but can show you this...
while clearing away stacks of fabric and looking for churn dash ones, found some juvenile charms...not quite enough for this but added a few, sewed them up and added the border. it'll be finished and put aside for a need....
i did add 3 of the narrow lime borders to "midnight at the oasis" so i can soon start to add the last border of blocks. hoping for a june flimsy....
took my daughter to a birthday lunch last week and she gifted me this...
it's the jubilee mug! i already had the queen's own marmalade on board...you can get it from amazon...and yes, it is the one she prefers! now just waiting on the monarch to ring the buzzer downstairs and it'll be tea time! unlike paddington, i won't be drinking mine directly from the pot...LOL!
warm and humid but can get away without A/C...not too bad thus far for summer in maryland...have a good one!
Paddington and The Queen was just wonderful. Hmm...a secret project....
