TUESDAY TALK

It's October already. Time to come to terms with the fact I won't be warm again until July. Bummer.
Last night I did my blocks for the Heal at do.Good Stitches group. Nicke asked for x & + blocks. These are the same blocks I am getting except much larger. I really like these scrappy blocks.




See those piles of scraps underneath? She may be getting more........

Hexagon #39.  I lost #38 so am doing another one


Speaking of hexagons, Katja, who designed this block of the week, has her top done


She floated them on the background, and even fussy cut the inner boarder so all the dots run around the inside. Gorgeous.


*if your name is Diane, and you recently asked about info on the hexagons, I can't reply to you.  There is no e-mail information available with your comment. If you e-mail me, I can reply to your questions. Thanks : )

So sorry you lost block 38! I love following along with all your blocks. Katja's top is just lovely- do you know what fabric she used for the border?

One of these days, you will be warm all the time, just like the rest of us. In the meantime, warm thoughts will just have to do.

Very nice scrappy blocks! When you say lost hexagon #38 - you mean literally lost? Or is there an interesting story to it getting lost?
happy sewing!
