Back to my regularly scheduled program

Well, maybe...  I am back home and and I am trying to get back into the swing of things. I am hoping to use my time more wisely and utilize some of the tips and tricks I learned at Houston. Barbara Black was a fantastic speaker.  WOW!  And so was Christen of I see Stars vlog on Youtube.  Both were incredibly organized and experienced and had wonderful ideas. 








First up some little blocks: 
 I purchased a box of precut 1 inch logs for a 4 1/2 inch log cabins from Pieceful Gatherings in Chicago some time ago. (They no longer will cut these.)  It has been on my unfinished list to do.   And I really do like small pieces.


So I have been taking an hour at a time here and there to chain piece a few at a time. I am measuring each new seam to make sure my seam allowance is accurate.




And here is what I have so far.   

It will make 100 blocks total, which is NOT very big. 

Additionally, I am finishing up a couple cross stitch projects for bowl fillers. 



They are small: 4 and 5 inches and need stuffing.

I am glad to be back blogging and "talking" to you all.

  1. Having the grandbaby 9 hours a day is a lot. She will be 2 next month. I'm having a rough time with babysitting and all I do outside of the home setting up any type of routine.

  3. Those log cabin blocks are so fun! I love the different designs you can make with them. And the fall cross-stitch designs are really pretty, too. Love the half pumpkin!
