GOT ME SOME--

work done today--
got my next goal finished for OMG--
with my hand quilting--
and then got it all finished--
the blue snowmen quilt is all done--
So now when I pack away the snowmen stuff in a couple days--
he can get packed with this his friends--
and--
I have '2' of my 6 projects for the month finished--!!!

And I got the next mystery step done on this one--
Talk about simple--
and Di and can simply mess things up!!!!
all I needed was 4- 2 1/2" squares and 4 2 1/2" x 8 1/2" strips--
and then sew it all together--
the first longer border piece I wanted to use and started to cut was not a wide enough strip--darn!!
then I picked this piece and had just enough to make the 4 sides--
and then I sewed them together--but--
the block came out toooo small--so--
I frogged and frogged and restitched it--
finally got it to be a good 12 1/2" square--!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So what did you stitch today????
Enjoy, di

No sewing for me today! I would think your snowmen might be melting if you're not careful.

That happens sometimes - we just cut or sew wrong. Glad you got it together. And good job on getting two out of six finished. You are rocking it!

The snowmen are sweet and I bet it's nice to have them finished. I have had those days. Sometimes I push through but usually I just set it aside to try another day.

Life without seam rippers would be bad!!! Glad you got it sorted out and back together. I need to stitch up a snowman or two. It is 73 outside and there is no chance of building one anytime soon.
