| Remember this photo of my lilacs from 10 weeks ago? |
 |
| This is how they look today. Pretty awful! Only the largest two shrubs have flowers. Our horrendous winter certainly did not agree with them--there is a lot of winter damage. I'm thinking it would be best to cut them back at least half way and hope for the best. No armloads of lilac bouquets this year--wahhhh! |
 |
| On a happier note, my first block of the Primitive Gatherings Summer Block of the Week arrived and I couldn't resist for a second to dive in and start stitching. I know I am going to love this quilt! |
 |
| The background blocks are pieced. There are also instructions to cut more pieces from the provided light fabrics and to make a total of 28 four patches from the darker fabrics for future blocks. I even managed to squeak out some 2" squares for the scrap box! |
 |
| Of course, I still have last years Summer Block of the Week blocks waiting to be made into a quilt. Oh, the guilt!!! |
Good Morning!
ReplyDeleteI totally love your wool Hexies. Where can I find small enough patterns to applique on them. I live in Sacramento, and have checked all sources there with no luck. It's very frustrating...Thank you!
