today's the day

the chooky churn dash sew-along ends and at least flimsies must be done...happy to say that i'm at least VERY close to a flimsy and by end of day today just might make it!

as you can see, have a pretty good layout and yes, the red is a bit strong, but i'm leaving it because i like that block....designer's prerogative!  i've enough blocks left of the 10" size to do a vertical row along the side, giving it a finished throw size at least.  i really didn't want the full size from the pattern and goal of using up many of my odd prints was met.  some are now gone for good and others have moved on to the scrap basket.  have decided to designate a month in 2023 to purely scrap sewing so stay tuned...

up early as busy morning ahead....get post done before morning meds slow me down....next cardio visit possible downward adjust of dosage...expecting a weekend visit from Ian so warming soup on the menu.  and since October is just a mere 18 hours away, i'll sign off with this...hoping my mom is putting up her "boo" piece too!

    Your churn dash blocks look great. I see nothing wrong with the red block, it looks just fine up there with all of the other colours.
