Quilting season only last so long!! <br />I am waiting for the new book!! And I put the date for the info on the mystery being released in my date book - a few friends and I are going to be doing this together. I got Orca done on time, I plan to do the same with this new one!!!<br /><br />Love to sew with you - you are my inspiration.

(I love scrap quilts but seem to do more "planned" projects) The quilts you do all have a lot of depth and very pretty under currents-not sure how to describe it, but I love how the pieces all seem to "like each other"! <br />Thanks for letting us have a glimpse.

I consider it part of my therapy since I have to bend my knee to keep my foot on the foot pedal. That may not sound like much, but did you ever try to bend a fat hot dog in half? That's about how my right leg looks!

I made up four ubits and joined so I have a reminder. Turns out the hardest thing to figure out is how th press so joining to the next blocks make sense (or at least are not bulky). But this is a good start for me. <br /><br />This WOULD make a super leaders/enders project!<br /><br />But I just cut and marked a gazillion squares for the lozenge ends for leaders and enders. Let's see if I can coordinate two L/E projects at once lol.<br /><br />Love the dirt nap! She is so sweet, but I'd swear that I occasionally see a "not pictures again, Mom" expression. She's a patient girl.
