A few blocks! And a trip!

 

We made another trip; this time to visit the grandkids again in Louisiana.  It was wonderful to be with them for spring/Easter break.  Really warm weather ( up to the 80s) and my son took off the week to be with us. We celebrated both my son's birthday as well as Easter making a ham dinner . Zero needlework done all week. 


All the Huber guys on our hike!


In the meantime, I have completed 2 of my Tilda blocks which are 16 inches. That gives me a total of 6. I still need a few more fat quarters to finish all the blocks. The fabrics are such a wonderful collection of colors and prints.



And after seeing all the Dear Jane blocks last weekend, I pulled mine to to assemble a few more. Lots of different techniques: applique and tiny machine piecing this time. 



Last but not least, I have finished a project mesh bag with counted cross done on it.

  2. the Dear Jane blocks are coming along nicely. Looks like a great time with the boys - is your daughter in law doing ok didn't she need a kidney transplant a couple years ago?

  3. Your mesh bag is very cute. A friend gifted me one...did you "finish" the inside?

  4. Sounds like you had a really nice trip and able to celebrate multiple things at the same time, always a bonus. Pretty blocks, particularly like the yellow and blue one. Very pretty. Hope you find more time to stitch. What a cute mess bag!
