Well, I managed to get something done after my “Hot Tub Incident“. I didn’t exactly follow the instructions for this block. I guess I had something else on my mind. I think it goes well with all my other blocks and I got to use more of my snowflake fabric.
Thank you to everyone for their well wishes. It was truly appreciated. A special thank you to Nanette Chopin Cook for calling to check on me. It really made my day. Quilters really are the nicest people.
Today was my quilt guilds “Quilt Wars”. We drew cards to determine what group we were in and were given a bag of fabric. Then we had to work together to create a top. It was quite enjoyable. They will all be quilted and given to charity. I was so busy I neglected to get any pictures. I am sure they will bring them to the next meeting. Glad I felt well enough to attend. It is good to get out and be with like-minded people.
So, for my One monthly goal, I finally got to work on the test dog block. I got everything cut out and even started sewing it.
My mind is always wandering to other projects, but I have so many already started, not to mention the holidays are right around the corner. Must get to work
Happy Sewing
Happy Quilting
You got your package done and it looks wonderful! Sometimes you just have to make the block work for you. Great job:)

I am just so happy that you are recouperating well and on the road again! I worked on Mountmellick Medallion all day yesterday and evening….. I also dreamed about the stupid quilt. That is nuts. Yup, I too think about the next project before one is totally complete – Like the change – the box needed something! Have a great Sunday and thx for the shout out!

I love your version of the block Lori. It is very cheerful! Sending healing wishes for all your bumps and bruises from the accident to be short term in nature and glad to hear you are feeling better.
