Since coming home from visiting friends and relatives in NY and CT - I seem to think I am still on vacation. Veery little has been accomplished around here - but I have enjoyed reading many books and catching with friends and family here.
The floral blocks are some I started in Missouri - I got 4 done there. And the striped ones are ones I made back in January and abandoned.
I did sew more blocks last weekend. I am a little disappointed
in them as I know that when I put them together points will be blunted. I am not used to sewing with precuts. My jelly rolls came from different manufacturers and they are not cut the same width. The white background is a perfect 2.5" but the florals are nearer 2.75". I have finally figured out that I need to trim each piece a bit before I sew the block. TEDIOUS!
We have had lots of rain this summer. View from my kitchen window.
Coming up the back steps is a little ticklely.
One tub of weeds and trimmings is about all I can accomplish in one session.
That's better!
I have been trying to keep this Autumn Clematis cut back as it tends to take over - but this year I will enjoy it and cut it back later!
