Block 9 and Other Projects

I'm caught up on the Fat Quarter Stars!

(Or, as I call it, the Scrappy Stars.)

Nothing too special here today.

If I were to do it again, I would make the

background fabric more interesting, applique

something in the middle square or maybe

fussy-cut some sort of fun print for that middle.

I still like it and it will certainly work for my scrappy

little quilt...which, btw, I'm getting

pretty anxious to complete.

Now I actually have to wait for block 9.

And, while I wait, I'm working on my coins.

(top & backing completed)

And getting ready to start that beret.

And having knitting friends over for coffee while

attempting to teach one to knit in the round.

(There is a good reason I did not pursue a career in teaching...!)

I still seem to be avoiding that Very Merry

Christmas quilt.  It's just laying around

in my sewing room, getting in the way. 

I'd love for this will be the week.
I've got to stay on top of my Winter Stitching List

before gardening season hits.

"Winter."  Bah.  The TREES are budding!

This is NOT a good sign!

Where's my snow???
