Back in the Saddle

 Sorry for being away for a while.  Fortunately, there is nothing amiss here. I did spend much of a week assisting a friend after her shoulder surgery. I enjoyed her company and got a lot of cross stitch completed while being there. 

I have gotten back to sewing a bit. First I completed the last 2 project bags from my Lori Holt kit.  All 8 are now made. 


I was procrastinating a bit.  My goal was to keep finishing quilts. I did not want to start anything new. But I was just hung up on how to get my borders to fit on the Rainbow Log Cabins.  So I finally just picked it up attacked the project.  Ugh!  I still don't understand how I avoided it. 

And It is DONE ! And looks amazing.  Even better than I had expected.  So very glad to have it off the pile. 

I also have been working on my Little America blocks.  I am still behind a few. 


But no progress on Dear Jane all month.  

Happy Mother's Day for all the mothers, grandmothers, and other assorted titles that give so much to younger ones.
