I spent some time cutting yesterday for the sashing bits for Bird Brain Designs "Here Comes Santa" and the giftie as well. Nope, not even a preview of that one!I told you in my last post that I messed up trimming that "Be Jolly" Santa and that block will need to be re-stitched. BOOO! The good, matching muslin is on its way from Bird Brain. In the giftie's case I did not like one of my fabric choices and ordered something that should work online but the rest is ready to go. Just a little minor cutting will be required when the replacement arrives. I figured I could go ahead and get started sewing anyway but chose the Santa project first.
I didn't think we had any more tulip bulbs out there but lo and behold, two pretty red ones popped up.
..............and whatever this is out. Really I don't know what that plant is and I don't think DJ does either. One of those bulb plants anyway. What does a jonquil look like??And so it goes around here. I'm sewing and DJ is doing a little of that homeowner repair stuff, sanding and painting something. A little frost in the overnight hours but it looks like the winds have died down today and the sun is shining. We got almost 2 inches of rain the other night from that slow moving thunderstorm front but no other damage in the area that I am aware of. I know some spots in GA had uprooted trees that caused some fatalities. Hit an occupied house and car. Sad when that happens.
Love the Santa blocks from BBDesigns.
ReplyDeleteYou have a wonderful and cheery blog... what a fun read! Thank you.

Love the pretty flowers.
I bet you were ready to cry with the miscutting of that block. At first when you told me that you miscut, I was hoping it was just a cornerstone. When I realized it was one of the larger blocks, I said a very loud DRATS! for you!
