A long week of long days doesn't make for a lot of "bright-eyed and bushy-tailed" come Friday evening... but I did get some sewing done before I was just too tired...
I got one 4-block unit and four 2-block units sewn together. The blocks are on a double bed so you can get some idea just how big this quilt is going to be.
It's going to be a fun day... a couple of friends and I are going to do a little local shop hopping...
...and have lunch out... then return here for an afternoon of sewing!
Yes, you have a wonderful day on tap!!! The JL blocks are looking so nice. I was REALLY tired last night too, so I know exactly how you felt.
ReplyDeleteYou going on the NC shop hop adventure? I went to one shop yesterday but didn't actually buy a passport. Trying decide if I'll venture out. There are 3 more with a 20 min radius of my house Hope you had fun!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good day! Blocks are lovely - love the yellow with the blue.
ReplyDeleteFNSI followed by and Saturday afternoon Sew IN. Sounds like a fun time to me.
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks. How many will you need for the quilt?
ReplyDeleteAre you doing the Quilt! Carolina Hop? I did seven stores yesterday. Just need to decide if I want to commit to driving to Fayetteville (would visit the one in Fuquay Varina on the way) next weekend or go ahead and turn in the passport.
Cheers, K
The blocks look great. I just had a reply note from Bonnie Hunter. I send her photos of my complete florabunda and thank you for her tuts. She's such a sweetie.
ReplyDeleteEven though you were tired, it looks like you got all of these blocks sewn together facing the right direction. Good job. I may not have done as well while fighting fatigue. Probably would have had to unpick half of them.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you were set for fun today!
Glad you took part of the day off for some fun time with friends. Your blocks are looking very nice.
