August Part 7 2 borders with the little squares appliquéd on - well, they are all cut out, preparation is the key they say. That and my love for ziplock bags. I am progressing slowly, so I am now only 1 month behind.... fingers crossed I can catch up before September is done.

Natures Journey my 2015 BOM

February & March Complete

My Stitch-A-Long BOM and I are a little behind but we are trying. I had a wonderful catch with the wonderful Chooky, and got to visit the Chook Shed in April. With Chooky cracking the whip, I managed to cut all my blocks. But sadly my life has been taken over by my health.... although I write sadly, its kind of weird as I actually think I am finally for the first time in my life totally enjoying exercise. I am attending 5 days a week now and missed 5 last week to a bout of Diverticulitis and I actually missed my Gym and Pool Days.

In my moments of rest I am trying hard to catch up and I have been amazed with the binding tool, making bias strips for the May and June blocks. Oh and my best friend has become the zip lock bag.... so I am almost there.

I can now claim that February, March and April blocks are complete....so hopefully Chooky will grant me a F, M & A beside my name

and May and June will be soon to follow.
