Some Sunday Sewing

What a difference a week makes!
 
The snow is starting to melt which is a good thing...
 
The calves keep going on the roof of the open shed!! 

Let the thaw begin!

While the water was running, I decided to start this Block of the Month.

It's called Halo Medallion by Sue Garman.

It's a free download if you subscribe to The Quilt Show by Ricky Tims

 I am going to use bright batiks

 I can't just pick some easy NON directional fabrics

So this took some thinking....

I wasn't sure about the orange but wanted to have some punch!

I think it worked.

Where to go from here...
