Can you believe it is NOVEMBER 2??
Where does the time go??
I was cutting grass yesterday
and
realized it was November...
I promptly put the lawnmower away FOR THE WINTER!!
What the heck....
cutting grass in November in Saskatchewan?????
This is what I should be doing more off...
I have to say these 6" blocks are not for the faint of heart
A trillion little pieces in 6x6"
These take patience.
I am using scraps from my Sedona Star Quilt
Batiks in Blues and Browns
And a side order of Western Kick....
Is there a thing called Western Batiks???
These blocks are picked randomly on the Gnome Angel Blog
a couple each week
But like the crazy fools we are....
Tracey Holzer and I are going to try to finish this
for June when our guild plans to have a show!!!
I think I am 1/3 done the 99 blocks
I know Tracey is 33 percent done!!
Some of these stupid little blocks have taken 2 to 3 hours
C-R-A-Z-Y!!!
I started working on the block named Tracey tonight
As I told Tracey... she is a complicated woman!!
All I can say is...
It's a darn good thing there is not a block named Christa
Hoping the snow goes north!!
Christa
Ps. if you're coffee is still warm,
be sure to hop over to The Block Party to see Tracey's progress!!
Just beautiful, Christa. Its nice to have a partner in crime in this for sure!!! My favourites are Aimee and Blossom of yours and also the fussy cutting and placement of Ann. Keep up the great work!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tracey. Two to tango right??
DeleteYou are a very patient woman to accomplish this and your're painting a lovely picture. I don't work with batiks much and have little in my stash but you have used them very effectively here.
