Don't really know why I titled this post--Sunday Best--
the words just came to me a few minutes ago when I thought about doing today's post--it does take me back in time though as I think about it--and always getting dressed up on Sunday's with what our Mom called--'our Sunday best clothes--and I bet she also meant --our Sunday best manners"!!!!
But these days--Sunday Best for me is being with my Best friends doing a post about stitching!
Here is this week's butterfly blocks--
this past week has mainly been green and pink ones--tomorrows list of to-do's includes making more butterfly's to applique next week--next weeks I think will be yellow and orange ones!!
And after my slow stitching morning--here is where the 'mouse' is at--
the 3 black birds are new this week--there is one more bird to stitch in the upper right hand corner--but first I have to stitch in a quarter moon for him to sit on!!
And I know that you are all just 'chumpin' at the bit to know what I have done with the dress blocks--well here it is so far--??????????????
I did spend alot of time on ideas this week for these blocks and see those corner triangles--I changed my mind a couple times on them --so lots of cutting of 2 1/2" squares--I also think the black lattice is too wide so will be cutting some of that off before moving on to the border--hummm--the border--oh my--what to decide to do on the border???????
I am really not sure what happened to last week--I just don't seem to have alot to show -so it doesn't look like I did much--but I was busy all day each day--guess one just has more to show some weeks!!! Yesterday I spent the morning on getting a new pattern ready for some fabric I have ordered and I had to make another mask for a friend--she needed one that tied, instead of going around her ears!
And Happy Fall for all of you who are so happy to have September here and are in a decorating frenzy!! Me--I just don't get into Fall until September 21st or so--to me it's still summer--and that was true for even when I lived in NY!!!
EVERYONE HAVE A HAPPY WEEK AND JUST KEEP SMILING--EVEN UNDER THOSE MASKS! LUV, DI

In really liking the butterflies
Had to laugh at the cat being the boss! Your butterfly's are looking great. Looks like you got a lot accomplished this week to me!
Looks like a fun Sunday Best working on your lovely projects.
Ooooh the dress one turned out so cute. Worth the effort to decide how you wanted to corner blocks.
cute dresses! And I love the butterflies. Any day now, I'm going to get inspired and start sewing again. I have a ton of stuff to choose from, but it just hasn't happened yet.
