Jacob's Ladder QAL Progress


Long day at work yesterday but I was able to sew together the component parts of the next four Jacob's Ladder blocks.


I'll get the blocks assembled after work today.




Gratuitous early spring flower

Fritillaria meleagris,  F. meleagris; also called:

  2. You did good! I didn't work on the binding like I planned on my JL the last 2 nights. Too much going on. But I may do a little this morning before work. Have a good day.

  9. Love that flower, it looks gorgeous, even the name sounds intriguing, (Fritillaria meleagris) it rolls off the tongue nicely :)
