It's Monday

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend and had a chance to be with your loved ones. I've been in slow-motion since getting home from FL. The last 10 days have passed in a daze. Today I finally felt normal (whatever that is, LOL) and actually spent time in my sewing room and on the treadmill. What have I got to show you? Well, let's see...

Here's a couple of 9 patches that I've made for my Disappearing Nine Patch. There are lots of tutorials out there, but this is the one I like right here.

I am also working on my NPNT blocks, I have 12 blocks in various stages of completion, LOL. I am also working on my Red Delicious BOM blocks, with blocks #1 and #2 very close to being done and block #3 in good shape.

I decided to redo my first A Tisket A Tasket BOM block and have decided to make all the blocks with the same background fabric. Problem is I haven't found it yet. Yikes! I just love this BOM :^)

My Country Calender BOM is also facing the same problem, I don't have any suitable background fabrics. I know, I know, you'll all thinking "Go shopping for fabric!" Soon I will !!!

Until next time...

Sounds like youve got a lot going on! I used that tutorial for the 9-patch too, and it turned out great.

I know how you feel... I keep saying to myself, "A week ago, I was in ____" Still feels like a dream and being home is kinda fuzzy. Glad you had a good time in Florida, though!

I can't wait to see your newly-configured BOM blocks. I worked on April's Tisket a Tasket today but I still have to do the hand stitching.

Take care ☺

You really should go out shopping for fabric. Those BOM's are all so nice and easy to do. At this stage another retreat would do you well ;-)
